|
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
|
Among the pine trees half forlorn
|
And there on a sunny morning
|
Little Jimmy Brown was born
|
|
(bung, bung, bung, bung)
|
All the chapel bells were ringing in the little valley town
|
And the song that they were singing was for baby Jimmy Brown
|
Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above
|
"Lead us not into temptation, bless this hour of meditation"
|
"Guide him with eternal love"
|
|
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
|
Beneath the mountains high above
|
And there, twenty years thereafter
|
Jimmy was to meet his love
|
|
(bung, bung, bung, bung)
|
All the chapel bells were ringing, 'twas a great day in his life
|
'cause the songs that they were singing was for Jimmy and his wife
|
Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above
|
"Lead us not into temptation, bless, oh Lord this celebration"
|
"May their lives be filled with love"
|
|
>From the village hidden deep in the valley
|
One rainy morning dark and gray
|
A soul winged its way to heaven
|
Jimmy Brown had passed away
|
|
(bung, bung, bung, bung)
|
Just a lonely bell was ringing in the little valley town
|
'twas farewell that it was singing to our little Jimmy Brown
|
And the little congregation prayed for guidance from above
|
"Lead us not into temptation, may his soul find the salvation"
|
"Of thy great eternal love"
|
