Pippi Forever


Now Pippi loved to hike in the woods
until she had almost exhausted herself,
time spent in nature gave her immeasurable pleasure
and ultimately a heart full of peace,
and round about that time
her horse would shown up just in time
and take her on a magical mystery tour
through more of the beauty of nature,
far away from the city
the trees, the streams, the meadows,
all the beauty of the woods
were so vibrant and pretty,
it all made her think of the days
when she knew nothing but young and free
oh look, over there by the brook
her tree house stands as pretty as can be,
this life is beautiful
right now, there's nothin' as precious as a tree
and look in that tree house,
all my friends are waiting for me.

Vous Moi Mai

Tell me why this life is beautiful,
Tell me why this life is gay,
is it that, is it because
you love me?

Not sure of the French spelling...
but I can sing it in French.

Matters not if you can spell the words in French, just be sure you know when the chords changes as you are singing it.

P.S: Gotta love those tree houses.
