Jump Up Behind Me
This land is a lovely green
It reminds me of my own home
Such children I've seldom seen
Even in my own home
The sky is so bright and clean
Just like my home
Kind people as have ever been
Won't you take me back to my own home?
Jump up behind me my love
Jump up behind me
Old Dan can bear us both
Jump up behind me
We follow this road 'til we reach the sea
Jump up behind me
We'll catch the tide and set Dan free
Jump up behind me
I've been in this world awhile
And I've seen a lot of country
Many days and many miles
All various and sundry
I've had my way and I've had my fun
And I've had my chance to run free
Burning hot beneath the sun
Freezing cold and wintry
Jump up behind me, my love
Jump up behind me
Old Dan can carry us both
Jump up behind me
We follow this road 'til we reach the sea
Jump up behind me
We'll catch the tide and set Ol' Dan free
Jump up, jump up behind me
I know now
One thing only matters in these days (I know now)
One thing, true love
Love and love alone
True love (I know now)
I came out of my dream last night
Thought I was back in my old home
Mom and Dad were both still alive
And the babies not yet born, no
Felt like a festival
And it felt like a Christmas morning
Felt the darkness fall away
Even as the world was turning
And even as the world was turning
La, la, la, la...
I say la, la, la...
You know, la, la, la, la
Come on, la, la, la, la
Jump up, la, la, la, la
Oh yeah la, la, la, la
You know I might need you, la, la, la, la
It reminds me of my own home
Such children I've seldom seen
Even in my own home
The sky is so bright and clean
Just like my home
Kind people as have ever been
Won't you take me back to my own home?
Jump up behind me my love
Jump up behind me
Old Dan can bear us both
Jump up behind me
We follow this road 'til we reach the sea
Jump up behind me
We'll catch the tide and set Dan free
Jump up behind me
I've been in this world awhile
And I've seen a lot of country
Many days and many miles
All various and sundry
I've had my way and I've had my fun
And I've had my chance to run free
Burning hot beneath the sun
Freezing cold and wintry
Jump up behind me, my love
Jump up behind me
Old Dan can carry us both
Jump up behind me
We follow this road 'til we reach the sea
Jump up behind me
We'll catch the tide and set Ol' Dan free
Jump up, jump up behind me
I know now
One thing only matters in these days (I know now)
One thing, true love
Love and love alone
True love (I know now)
I came out of my dream last night
Thought I was back in my old home
Mom and Dad were both still alive
And the babies not yet born, no
Felt like a festival
And it felt like a Christmas morning
Felt the darkness fall away
Even as the world was turning
And even as the world was turning
La, la, la, la...
I say la, la, la...
You know, la, la, la, la
Come on, la, la, la, la
Jump up, la, la, la, la
Oh yeah la, la, la, la
You know I might need you, la, la, la, la
