Lyrics

In the valley we're having the springtime of fools
Nature don't follow no calendars or rules
You can go ahead and call me a fool
This is just what I've needed
I'm thawing out, stretching my wings
Daffodils are early, unaware of the next freeze
I'm the queen fool of this fool's spring
But it's just what I've needed

I'm gonna sit on the porch and listen
To the peepers down by the creek
Smell the fresh soil tilled up by the neighbors
Who started their garden this week
And ooo!ooo!
This breeze is a-makin' me weak
You can go on and mock the queen of fool's spring
But it's just what I've needed

You can make me a dunce cap for a crown
Covered with clovers from the ground
With buttercups and dandelion chains all around
I'll wear it proudly to town
I've got to roll in anyway, get my new seeds
This plot needs tilling, get rid of these weeds
Maybe I'll see you wearing short sleeves
This is just what we've needed

I'm gonna sit on the porch and listen
To the peepers down by the creek
Smell the fresh soil tilled up by the neighbors
Who started their garden this week
And ooo!ooo!
This breeze is a-makin' me weak
You can go on and mock the queen of fool's spring
But it's just what I've needed
