There's  a village hidden deep in the valley,
among  the pine  trees half  forlorn.
 And there on a sunny morning,
 little Jimmy  Brown was born.
 (Bells sound:Bong, Bong, Bong, Bong)
All  the chapel bells were ringing, in the little valley town,
 and the songs that they were singing, was  for baby Jimmy Brown.
 and the little congregation..prayed  for guidance from above,
 'Lead us not into temptation,  bless this hour of meditation,
 guide him with eternal love.'
There's  a village hidden deep in the valley,
 beneath  the mountains high  above.
 And there, twenty years thereafter,
 Jimmy was  to meet  his love.
All  the chapel bells were ringing, 'twas a great day in his life,
 cause the songs that they were singing were  for Jimmy and his wife.
 Then the little congregation..prayed  for guidance from above,
 'Lead us not into temptation,  bless, oh Lord this celebration,
 may their lives be filled with love.'
From  the village hidden deep in the valley,
 one rainy morning dark  and gray..
 a soul winged its way to Heaven,
Jimmy  Brown had passed  away.
Just  a lonely bell was ringing, in the little valley town,
 'twas farewell that it was singing, to  our little Jimmy Brown.
And  the little congregation..prayed  for guidance from above.
 'Lead us not into temptation,  may his soul find the salvation,
 of Thy Great Eternal Love.
 A fabulous fifties hit from Kraziekhat.
