Farm’s Been Sold
The farm’s been sold
The bank’s been broke
I can’t ever go back home
The news reports are without hope
Now don’t you listen to them
Build your home out on the plains
Protect it with your bare hands
Construct it in fine steel and gold
It’s torn apart by lightning
Oh man, I can’t give in or understand
Oh man I can’t hold on for one more chance
I had a dream of my old age
I was walkin’ through the garden
Thinkin’ ’bout the fruit I’d grown
I wonder if it’s ripened
Someone stole the body’s soul
And he is rather warlike
Our gifts of silk and our healing herbs
Are o’ershadowed by our missiles
Oh man, I can’t give in or understand,
Oh man I can’t hold out for one more chance
Cause all
all is gone.

A good candidate for admission to the Garden Suite. After Backyard, before Garden 3. This one definitely needs more play; maybe next Tuesday?

My ears tell me that the verse is:
Someone stole the body’S soul
And HE is rather warlike
Our gifts of silk and OUR healing herbs
Are o’ershadowed by our missiles
From the Project THERE show.
