Oh ! Pleasant Hope

Billy Joe went lookin' roundOne yellow summer dayTo see if he could find some grassTo help him on his wayBut everywhere that Billy wentThey said the town was drySo he got to talkin' roundAnd ask the reason why.Oh! pleasant hopeHe asked the reason whyOh! pleasant hopeWhen we're gonna get our dope!Oh! pleasant hopeWon't you help him on his wayOh! pleasant hopeWon't you help him on his way.They said they're burning farmers nowLong live Mexico!For some uncertain reason nowJust won't let grass growAll we have to do is wait some moreAnd bide our timeAnd pretty soon the times will changeAnd grass will flow like wine.Oh!p leasant hopeGrass will flow like wineOh! pleasant hopeGrass will flow like wineOh! pleasant hopeGrass will flow like wineOh! pleasant hopeGrass will flow like wine!
