Parker Ouellette - A Tickless Meadow Lyrics

Well I thought I liked
Sleeping in
But if you came on back I'd jump out of bed
At seven A.M.
'Cause I thought I liked
Peace when I ate
But if you came on back I'd give you
All the food from my plate
And I hope you woke
In a tickless meadow
Where the pretty grass grows
And the birds fly high above
And I hope the farmer spoke
In a voice so gentle
And told you in a way you understand
How much you're loved
Well I thought I liked
Drinkin beer
So come on back and I'll drink my beer
And you can chew on your bone
'Cause I thought I liked
Doin' nothin'
So please come on back 'cause nothin' isn't fun to do alone
And I hope you woke
In a tickless meadow
Where the pretty grass grows
And the birds fly high above
And I hope the farmer spoke
In a voice so gentle
And told you in a way you understand
How much you're loved
And I'm sure you're quite content there
With the love that you receive
So I can understand if you don't want to leave
Wherever you are
I hope the floor is cold
I hope your joints aren't sore
And that you're kept safe from harm
And when it's my time,
When it's here and real
I hope that dying feels like
Going back down to the farm
And I hope I wake
In a tickless meadow
Where the pretty grass grows
Down the hill and through the glen
And I hope the farmer speaks
In a voice so gentle
And all the old dogs run around
Like puppies once again
