Way over yonder
is a place that I know
Where I can find shelter
from hunger and cold.
And the sweet tasting good life
is so easily found
Way over yonder
that's where I'm bound.
I know when I get there,
the first thing I'll see
Is the sun shining golden (sun shining golden)
shining right down on me.
Then trouble's gonna lose me
worry leave me behind
And I'll stand up proudly
in true peace of mind.
Talkin' bout a, talkin' bout a...
Way over yonder
is a place I have seen
In a garden of wisdom
from some long ago dream
saxophone solo
May be tomorrow
I'll find my way
To the land where the honey runs
in rivers each day
And the sweet tasting good life
is so easily found
Way over yonder - that's where I'm bound
Way over yonder - that's where I'm bound
