Goin' down to Lillian's music store
To buy a black diamond string
Gonna wind it up on my guitar
Gonna make that silver sing
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago, a million miles away
All the trees were green in Dreamville
I keep wakin' up all by myself
With a blue jay in my brain
Flappin' his wings, makin' me sing
It was just about to rain
Like it was Dreamville
Where I was born, light years from here
And the air smelled good in Dreamville
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago, light years from here
And the trees were green in Dreamville
Ridin' with my mama to Glen Springs Pool
The water was cold my lips were blue
There was rock and roll across the dial
When I think of her it makes me smile
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago, a million miles away
All the trees were green in Dreamville, in Dreamville
Yeah it was Dreamville
A long time ago, light years from here
And the air smelled good in Dreamville, in Dreamville
