Oh ! Pleasant Hope lyrics
(Dr. Richard Peddicord)
Billy Joe went lookin round
One yellow summer day
To see if he could find some grass
To help him on his way
But everywhere that Billy went
They said the town was dry
So he got to talkin round
And ask the reason why.


Oh! pleasant hope
He asked the reason why
Oh! pleasant hope
When we re gonna get our dope!


Oh! pleasant hope
Won t you help him on his way
Oh! pleasant hope
Won t you help him on his way.


They said they re burning farmers now
Long live Mexico!
For some uncertain reason now
Just won t let grass grow
All we have to do is wait some more
And bide our time
And pretty soon the times will change
And grass will flow like wine.


Oh! pleasant hope
Grass will flow like wine
Oh! pleasant hope
Grass will flow like wine
Oh! pleasant hope
Grass will flow like wine
Oh! pleasant hope
Grass will flow like wine!
