i know a place   pretty as pie   out where the riverbend   hits up with the end of the sky   it's left of nebraska   and over a crest   on a little patch of heaven   way out west      ev'rythings green   know what i mean   darlin it's the sweetest sight   thatcha ever done seen   ain't nothin much out there   just life at its best   on that little patch of heaven   way out west      bees by the dozen   ar buzzin   real peaceful   ev'ry bluebonnet   doggone it   smells nice   even the tumblin tumbleweed   slows down to match yer speed   on my tiny half-an-acre   of paradise      ev'ry which way   buttercups sway   out on the hills,the daffpdills   are enjoyin the day   what could be better that settin to rest   on a little patch of heaven   way out west      hummin birds flutter   in utter   contentment   ev'ry darn daisy   feels lazy   you bet   even the skeeters an the fleas   say "may i","thanks"   and "please"   why it's just as close to perfect   as you can get      darlin,i swear   once you been there   there ain't a view   beneath the blue   that could ever compare   the only thing missin is you as my guest   on that little patch of heaven   way out west...      why don'tcha come visit   there's room in my nest   on that little patch of heaven   way out west
