Tom T. Hall - Gimme Peace lyrics
[Tom T. Hall - Gimme Peace lyrics]
Let me scratch that hound dog's ear
Let me rock in your rocking chair
Gimme peace, gimme peace, gimme peace
Show me your garden, I love to hoe
Let me walk in a fertile row
I got some seeds that I'd like to sow
And when that evening sun goes down
Drive me into your hometown
Let me buy your friends a round
Let me drink water from your well
Tell me a story that you'd like to tell
I think you'll find that I'll listen well
When you've had all of me that you can take
Say so long with a strong handshake
Don't get to drinkin' and ask me to stay
And when that evening sun goes down
Drive me into your hometown
I'll catch that next truck outward-bound
You can find out what time
That bus leaves for cincinnati
