Lyrics
New York, Tennessee, Oregon, Maine,
Wichita, Little Rock, Butte and Spokane,
I’ve seen ‘em all, Mister, I’ve heard their noisy hum,
You know ‘em all, Mister, when you’re a bum.
Wherever I go, I listen and I hear,
The lonely tune of the frantic, lonely millions,
Trying hard to buy the moon.
And I heard a song of harvest in the green and copper hills,
As the copper turns to pennies and the green to dollar bills.
Yes, I’ve heard ‘em all, Mister. But I can’t go sing ‘em back,
I sing another song along the track.

CHORUS
I sing a song about the ocean,
Sing of how endless is the ocean,
Sing of how ever near the shore and sea,
And that’s how true love should ever be.
I sing a song about the snow fall,
Sing of how gentle is the snowfall,
Sing of how pure the snow on ev’ry tree,
And that’s how true love should ever stay.
I’ve sung my song on a plain with the wind and the rain about me.
I’ve sung it high to a cloud and the people who crowd along.
Oh, I sing a song about forever,
Only a song about forever,
Sing of how empty hearts forever long.
But nobody listens to my song.
