Lyrics

Strolling through the shady grove
Half a country mile through the redwood glen
The squirrels they were jumping
As daylight comes to rest upon nature's sweet caress
Fireflies mark my way
Ancient constellations up high above the nation
Let's have a conversation by and by
Some for you and some for me
And I wander through the trees
Ain't got no worries on my mind
Whoa-ho-oh
I heard it all on the radio
Whoa-ho-oh
Leave it all behind
And the thunder's rolling gently
Rolling smoothly through the trees
Of a Georgia midnight river
Daisy, Daisy, what a gal
She lives up on the hill
You wouldn't know from looking that she's feeling kinda ill
As she dances with the children
In the lilies and the rain
Gonna make believe there's nothing to complain
Well often is the case
You find a stranger in a place
Living out the life you left behind
So wade into the streams
That lead you to your dreams
And the fireflies will mark your way
Whoa-ho-oh
I heard it all on the radio
Whoa-ho-oh
Leave it all behind
And the thunder's rolling gently
Rolling smoothly through the trees
Of a Georgia midnight river
John, John, did you roll wrong
To find your way into my song?
Every now and then your sign reads "Open"
Collecting pieces of the past
I try to make it last
Vinyl records play a song all day
Yes, it's quite a pleasant sight
You fireflies at night
Illuminate my soul with your conviction
Oh, I think I'll close my eyes
And open to the skies
Thunder guide me down to the river
Whoa-ho-oh
I heard it all on the radio
Whoa-ho-oh
Just leave it all behind
And the thunder's rolling gently
Rolling smoothly through the trees
Of a Georgia midnight river
I said the thunder's rolling gently
Rolling smoothly through the trees
Of a Georgia midnight river
