[Intro]
I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
[Verse 1]
All the flowers are blooming
And the trees are green
And I got to be, where people are nice
And no-one, no-one is ever mean
[Chorus]
In the land of milk and honey
That's where I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
Where all men are free
Oh just let me be
In that land of milk and honey
[Verse 2]
Where we can love one another
With the love that's so divine
Where I can keep the feeling of love in my heart
And keep you ever on my mind
[Chorus]
In the land of milk and honey
That's where I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
Where all men are free
Oh just let me be
In that land of milk and honey
I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
[Verse 1]
All the flowers are blooming
And the trees are green
And I got to be, where people are nice
And no-one, no-one is ever mean
[Chorus]
In the land of milk and honey
That's where I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
Where all men are free
Oh just let me be
In that land of milk and honey
[Verse 2]
Where we can love one another
With the love that's so divine
Where I can keep the feeling of love in my heart
And keep you ever on my mind
[Chorus]
In the land of milk and honey
That's where I want to be
In the land of milk and honey
Where all men are free
Oh just let me be
In that land of milk and honey
