When the summer heat chases us out of the city
There's one place our family knows we can count on.
Where the temperature's lower and it's not so sticky it's
our country house on blueberry pond.

For on Blueberry Pond there's a warm gentle breeze
that blow's off the water and tickles your skin.
And the sun's not so bad, under the shade trees but
if you're still hot you can go for a swim.

Blueberry Pond. Blueberry Pond.
If we're not home that's where we've probably gone.
To our own bit of Paradise down on Cape Cod it's
Our Country House on Blueberry Pond.

For the water on Blueberry Pond is refreshing
It washes yours troubles and makes you feel new.
But if you get chilled you might like to go riding
on our own rowboat or our tippy canoe.

Just beware that the breeze on the pond is delightful
Until you take paddle or oar in your hand.
Then the gentlest breeze can become almost frightful
You might not be able to steer where you planned.

Blueberry Pond. Blueberry Pond.
If we're not home that's where we've probably gone.
To our own bit of Paradise down on Cape Cod it's
Our Country House on Blueberry Pond.

Oh the fishing at Blueberry Pond won't be famous you'll
Find little more than some schools of minnows.
But the sunfish are friendly they'll gobble your worms up
Just stand in the pond and they'll nibble your toes.

Oh the birding at Blueberry Pond's more rewarding there's
Bluejays and Redwings to name just a few.
There's a flicker who pecks at our house in the morning the
Kingbird's are raising a family of two.

Blueberry Pond. Blueberry Pond.
If we're not home that's where we've probably gone.
To our own bit of Paradise down on Cape Cod it's
Our Country House on Blueberry Pond.

When the days become shorter and green turns to gold
Our pond house is still a good place to retire.
We can hike, we can bike, and when it gets cold we just
Turn on the heat and we sit by the fire.

But when winter delivers its cold icy blast
In spite of the fact that we want to stay longer,
It is time that we close up the house tight and fast so we
lock up the boats and we shut off the water.

Blueberry Pond, Blueberry Pond.
Fondly we think of it all winter long.
But as soon as the spring comes we'll get a move on
and return with the robins to Blueberry Pond.

Blueberry Pond. Blueberry Pond.
If we're not home that's where we've probably gone.
To our own bit of Paradise down on Cape Cod it's
Our Country House on Blueberry Pond.
