Down by the lake I saw you
You were looking fine
There was not one thing on my mind
The snow was melting and I felt a shiver
Springtime by and by
Salt trucks moving uphill towards the sky
And even though this scene I can't contend
It's real enough to make a friend
Did you quiver down inside
It may not be where you would like to stay
Not every happy home is A-O.K.
But if you try
You may just like the looks of our old town
And even though this scene I can't contend
It's real enough to make a friend
Did you quiver down inside
It may not be where you would like to stay
Not every happy home is A-O.K.
But if you try
You may just like the looks of our old town
Hello spring and goodbye winter
No frozen roadways now
I can fetch my rake, my rusty trowel
Come quickly and take a look
Can you see it there
I think there's something hiding there
And even though this scene I can't contend
It's real enough to make a friend
Did you quiver down inside
It may not be where you would like to stay
Not every happy home is A-O.K.
But if you try
You may just dig the sounds you hear
You never need to feel no fear
You may just like the looks of our old town
