Kansas - Peaceful And Warm lyrics

rate me

I went driving through my old hometown It was Thursday the bright sun on the horizon I was surprised to see no one had burned it down It seemed so peaceful and warm Floods of memories came back to me All the things we got away with when we were younger And I felt kind of like a refugee Like a scattered pile of leaves in a storm Peaceful memory like lights on a Christmas tree Every hometown should be peaceful and warm Every father mother sister brother friend of the family Peaceful and warm Somehow now and then didn't seem to blend 'Till a farmer plowing his field waved hello Another working man doing the best he can I hope he is peaceful and warm Peaceful memory plows in the green field sea Every hometown should be peaceful and warm Every father mother sister brother friend of the family Peaceful and warm On the Kansas banks of the Muddy Mo' I threw rocks in the river and dreamed of running away In a wind of change only a father knows In a world so hectic so cold I guess my old hometown's kinda dead and gone Miss the sign on I-29 and you blow right by But it's a place I can go remember where I come from It will help me keep me peaceful and warm Peaceful memory the only thing that's free Take them and try to be peaceful and warm Every father mother sister brother friend of the family Peaceful peaceful and warm
