The mountain in view,
The garden's so quiet,

When the sun shone down on our street, the place I loved to play.
For many a window glistened, cleaned well to a sparkling shine,
Where starched white shirts blew gaily, on many a washing line.

But with it brings aches and pains,
My prescription list's getting longer,
And my stamina's gone down the drain,
