Dear Hearts and Gentle People

[00:09.02] I love those dear hearts and gentle people,
[00:14.44] Who live in my home town.
[00:18.00] Because those dear hearts and gentle people
[00:23.48] Will never ever let you down.
[00:27.97] They read the good Book from Fri' till Monday,
[00:33.42] That's how the weekend goes.
[00:37.94] I've got a dream house I'll build there one day,
[00:43.32] With picket fence and ramblin' rose.
[00:47.81] I feel so welcome each time that I return
[00:52.39] That my happy heart keeps laughin' like a clown.
[00:56.81] I love the dear hearts and gentle people,
[01:02.23] Who live and love in my home town.
[01:07.78] There's a place I'd like to go and it's Batten, Idaho,
[01:12.25] Where your friendly neighbors smile and say "Hello."
[01:16.72] It's a pleasure and a treat to meander down the street,
[01:22.12] That's why I want the whole wide world to know.
[01:26.68] I love those dear hearts and gentle people,
[01:32.19] Who live in my home town.
[01:35.70] Because those dear hearts and gentle people
[01:41.13] Will never ever let you down.
