Along the road

Along the road from where I lived
lived a man who took me with
My friend across the railroad tracks
he walked us there and walked us back

He did this nearly every day
to go and watch the rabbits play
In fields as green as were his eyes
no damage done no big surprise

We loved this man and held him dear
the seasons bought another year
But still he took us every day
to go and watch the rabbits play
