(Verse 1)
Sun in the sky and a breeze in the air,
Don't have a worry, don't have a care.
Woke up this morning, what's first on the list?
Munch on the clover that's been dewy kissed!
Follow the flock to the pasture so wide,
Got all day long to just wander inside.
(Chorus)
Oh, the meadow is where I belong,
Grazing and praising all day long!
Baa-baa-bouncing with joy in my fleece,
A happier sheep could not find any peace...
Except in this field, with my head bent low,
Where all of the very best green things do grow!
(Verse 2)
See that patch of fescue, so tender and bright?
Gotta nip it and chew it with all of my might.
I pick a bit here, and I pick a bit there,
A full-time devotion, a meal beyond compare.
The grass is so sweet, and the water so cool,
Life in the pasture's a wonderful school!
(Chorus)
Oh, the meadow is where I belong,
Grazing and praising all day long!
Baa-baa-bouncing with joy in my fleece,
A happier sheep could not find any peace...
Except in this field, with my head bent low,
Where all of the very best green things do grow!
(Bridge)
Sometimes I stop, just to look at a cloud,
Don't have to shout or talk very loud.
Just listen to the buzzing of the little bees' knees,
And feel the soft sun filtered through the tall trees.
Then munch, munch, munch, it's back to the task,
What more could a happy-go-lucky sheep ask?
(Outro)
More green, more blue, and more lovely soft ground,
The happiest sheep that has ever been found!
Yeah, all day long, 'til the setting of light...
Baa! Goodnight!
