Lyrics
Mission(Johnny Appleseed-A Student Story)
Amidst old oak and maple, nestled in the thick
an aged horse stable next to a house of brick
Along the stone wall, a long time ago
old roads which followed, 18th century homes
Looking over the earth, one could barely see
hills that once were covered with green
In a simple time of sweat and gruel
Johnny Chapman, roamed the earth
Innocense of a child he had
spreading joy throughout the land
reading the Holy Book
surrounded by the children
A student story
about a simple mission
with all its glory
in folklore and tradition
a pot on barefoot
befriending all the Indians
unmarried man,
and a vegeterian
