In the cool green shade
At the foot of a mountain
So far away
Sits a barefoot boy
There born and raised
Singing songs
In the old style way
In the old style way
Life was so sweet
Didn't take a lot of money
Just to make ends meet
With the love of a girl
And a little bit of faith
There's a lot you can say
For the old style way
As he works the land
And sows the seed
That grows into his destiny
Wind in his heart
Earth in his hands
He won't forget
Where he began
In the old style way
Life was so simple then
Unlike today
In a world gone mad
Where eyes warm and bright
Turn cold and grey
Still I can dream
In the old style way
By the light of the moon
She comes to watch him play
As he sings to her the story of the love
The night ends too soon
He wishes she could stay
As his eyes see stars up above
In the old style way
Life was so sweet
Didn't take a lot of money
Just to make ends meet
With the love of a girl
And a little bit of faith
There's a lot you can say
For the old style way
In the old style way
Life was so simple then
Unlike today
In a world gone mad
Where eyes warm and bright
Turn cold and grey
Still I can dream
In the old style way
In the old style way
Life was so sweet
Didn't take a lot of money
Just to make ends meet
With the love of a girl
And a little bit of faith
There's a lot you can say
For the old style way
Still I can dream
In the old style way
In a stonewood house In the cool green shade At the foot of a mountain So far away Sits a barefoot boy There born and raised Singing songs In the old style way In the old style way Life was so sweet Didn't take a lot of money Just to make ends meet With the love of a girl And a little bit of faith There's a lot you can say For the old style way As he works the land And sows the seed That grows into his destiny Wind in his heart Earth in his hands He won't forget Where he began In the old style way Life was so simple then Unlike today In a world gone mad Where eyes warm and bright Turn cold and grey Still I can dream In the old style way By the light of the moon She comes to watch him play As he sings to her the story of the love The night ends too soon He wishes she could stay As his eyes see stars up above In the old style way Life was so sweet Didn't take a lot of money Just to make ends meet With the love of a girl And a little bit of faith There's a lot you can say For the old style way In the old style way Life was so simple then Unlike today In a world gone mad Where eyes warm and bright Turn cold and grey Still I can dream In the old style way In the old style way Life was so sweet Didn't take a lot of money Just to make ends meet With the love of a girl And a little bit of faith There's a lot you can say For the old style way Still I can dream In the old style way Explain Request ×
