Country In The City Lyrics - Sesame Street

See a tree grow through the sidewalk 

An amazing thing to see 

In the city, through the sidewalk 

Grows a country kind of tree 

And the leaves go green in summer 

Make a cool and shady space 

For the people who are passing 

And the street's a better place 

There is country in the city 

Look around and you will see 

Pigeons pecking on the pavement 

Squirrel running up a tree 

There is country in the city 

For you and me 

Oooooooo 

See the flowers in some windows 

Marigolds and daffodils 

Like a little piece of country 

Sitting on a windowsill 

Island floating in the traffic 

Where the trees and flowers grow 

Little forest on the rooftop 

City farmers down below 

There is country in the city 

Parts with butterflies and bees 

Little lakes with boats for rowing 

Playgrounds with trees 

There is country in the city 

With some buildings in between 

Find a country in your city 

Keep it growing 

And growing 

Keep it green
