Way over yonder is a place that I know
Where I can find shelter from hunger and cold
And the sweet tasting good life is so easily found
Way over yonder--that's where I'm bound

I know when I get there, the first thing I'll see
Is the sun shining golden
Shining right down on me
Then trouble's gonna lose me
Worry leave me behind
And I'll stand up proudly in true peace of mind

Way over yonder is a place I have seen
In a garden of wisdom from some long ago dream

Maybe tomorrow I'll find my way
To the land where the honey runs
in rivers each day
And the sweet tasting good life is
so easily found
Way over yonder-that's where I'm bound
Way over yonder-that's where I'm bound
