Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find it?
Where must I find my resting place?
Over the hills, across the valley
Over the hills, across the valley
I'm sure I can see, I'm sure I can see
Too much pollution, too much
Too much pollution, too much pollution
Too much pollution, too much pollution
I would like to see
The broad shaded tree
Just I can rest my head underneath
Cause the sun is so hot
What says the father
Oh gosh!
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting place?
Over the hills, across the valley
I'm sure I can see, I'm sure I can see
Too much pollution, too much pollution
I would like to see
A broad-shaded tree
Just I can rest my head, my head underneath
Cause the sun is so hot
What says the father
Oh gosh! Oh gosh! Oh gosh!
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting place?
Where must I find my resting, my resting, my little resting?
Where must I find my resting place?
