We ran out of cheese in Galeta Town
As we sat right down by the big oak tree
Little farming town by the deep green sea
Watch the tide roll out, watch the tide roll in
Farm girl walking along,
Singing a song by the big oak tree
Farm girl how would you like to be
Friends with a poor boy like me
Mama always says strangers can be friends
Come along with me it's almost suppertime
We don't have too much, set yourself right down
Tell me who you are, tell me where you've been
Then Revered Tom he says, "Thank you for this day
I had never dreamed that we'd get this far
Bless this little place, everybody here
There's a brighter side, I can see it clear
Farm girl, walking along,
Singing a song by the big oak tree
Farm girl how'd you like to be
Friends with a poor boy like me
Farm girl, walking along,
Seen some hard times in the country
Farm girl, still got the time to be
Friends with a poor boy like me
As we sat right down by the big oak tree
Little farming town by the deep green sea
Watch the tide roll out, watch the tide roll in
Farm girl walking along,
Singing a song by the big oak tree
Farm girl how would you like to be
Friends with a poor boy like me
Mama always says strangers can be friends
Come along with me it's almost suppertime
We don't have too much, set yourself right down
Tell me who you are, tell me where you've been
Then Revered Tom he says, "Thank you for this day
I had never dreamed that we'd get this far
Bless this little place, everybody here
There's a brighter side, I can see it clear
Farm girl, walking along,
Singing a song by the big oak tree
Farm girl how'd you like to be
