Bye Bye Birdie - Lets Settle Down From TV Special Lyrics

Can't shake that dream of you and me
in some little town.
If you'd shape up,
We'd settle down,
Leave the mess and the stress
Of big city livin',
Trade that grabbing and shoving
For loving and giving
I'm tired of your talking,
I want it now.
That house and yard
with only birds bringing songs around,
Don't be afraid to settle down.
That green stuff's grass
and that smell everywhere,
Know what that is?
Fresh air.
The years are going by so fast.
Hey, it's time we found some peace of mind,
Our peace of ground, let's settle down
