[Verse 1]
---------------------
G Cm Ab Fm
As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain
G Cm
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain
Ab Fm
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
G Cm
You know, I shun fancy things like electricity
Ab Fm
At 4:30 in the morning, I'm milkin' cows
G Cm
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows, fool
Ab Fm
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
G Cm
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
Ab Fm
I'm a man of the land, I'm into discipline
G Cm
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
Ab Fm
But if I finish all of my chores, and you finish thine
G Cm
Then tonight, we're gonna party like it's 1699
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Ab Fm
We been spending most our lives
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
I churned butter once or twice
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
It's hard work and sacrifice
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
We sell quilts at discount price
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
[Verse 2]
---------------------
Ab Fm
A local boy kicked me in the butt last week
G Cm
I just smiled at him and I turned the other cheek
Ab Fm
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
G Cm
'Cause I'll be laughin' my head off when he's burnin' in Hell
Ab Fm
But I ain't never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
G Cm
An Amish with a 'tude? You know
that's unheard of
Ab Fm
I never wear buttons but I got a cool hat
G Cm
And my homies agree I really look good in black, fool
Ab Fm
If you come to visit, you'll be bored to tears
G Cm
We haven't even paid the phone bill in 300 years
Ab Fm
But we ain't really quaint, so please don't point and stare
G Cm
We're just technologically impaired
[Bridge]
---------------------
Ab Fm
There's no phone, no lights, no motorcar
G Cm
Not a single luxury
Ab Fm
Like Robinson Crusoe
G Cm
It's as primitive as can be
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Ab Fm
We been spending most our lives
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
We're just plain and simple guys
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
There's no time for sin and vice
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
We don't fight, we all play nice
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
[Verse 3]
---------------------
Ab Fm
Hitchin' up the buggy, churnin' lots of butter
G Cm
Raised a barn on Monday, soon I'll raise another
Ab
Think you're really righteous?
Fm
Think you're pure in heart?
G Cm
Well, I know I'm a million times as humble as thou art
Ab Fm
I'm the pious guy the little Amlettes wanna be like
G Cm
On my knees day and night, scorin' points for the afterlife
Ab Fm
So don't be vain and don't be whiny
G Cm
Or else, my brother, I might have to get medieval on your heinie
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Ab Fm
We been spending most our lives
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
We're all crazy Mennonites
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
There's no cops or traffic lights
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
Ab Fm
But you'd probably think it bites
G Cm
Livin' in an Amish paradise
[Outro]
