C majorC
There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
FF     C majorC     FF    C majorC
among the pine trees half forlorn.

little Jimmy Brown was born.

and the songs that they were singing, was for baby Jimmy Brown.
               A7A7            DmDm Bb majorBb
and the little congregation prayed for guidance from above,
           FF               C7C7
'Lead us not into temptation, bless this hour of meditation,
            FF
guide him with eternal love.'

There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
 FF     C majorC     FF   C majorC
beneath the mountains high above.

Jimmy was to meet his love.

cause the songs that they were singing were for Jimmy and his wife.

Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above,
           FF                C7C7
'Lead us not into temptation, bless, oh Lord this celebration,
                FF
may their lives be filled with love.'

From the village hidden deep in the valley,

one rainy morning dark and gray

Jimmy Brown had passed away.

'twas farewell that it was singing, to our little Jimmy Brown.
