Lyrics
If I could have my way I’d live in the forest,
With the black bears, the opossums, and the wolverines,
I’d wake up each day to nature’s chorus,
The cry of the eagle, the soft chickadees,
There’d be no better place on my lifeline,
Then when I flew to the sun and lived in the trees,
I’d sure like some company on this journey,
You and me we could be, Adam and Eve,
If I could have my way I’d live in the outback,
With the salty crocodiles, koalas and kangaroos,
I’d wake each day to nature’s chorus,
Of parrots, lorikeets and kookaburra too,
There’d be no better place…
Way up high on a mountain or out on a prairie,
The stars and the moon will shine from above,
We’ll shy away from fruit and persuasive serpents,
And somewhere on adventure we’ll fall in love,
If I could have my way I’d live in the jungle,
With the lions, the orangutans and chimpanzees,
I’d wake up each day to nature’s chorus,
And my kindly friends the birds of prey will stop by for tea,
There’d be no better place…
