THIS FARM (Lyrics)
I come to this town..I bought this place
cause the air was clean and the nights were safe
Fifty years I been a livin’ here in peace
’till a city man bought land and started changing the scenery yea
Beer cans on the dirt road, the clean countryside is gone
As for my privacy, all kind of strangers looking on
When I get to the highway well there’s a bar that opened up
Joe drove off, died drunk last night,
City man blamed it on bad luck yea
CHORUS
City man, get your city hands far from this farm
City man, get your city hands far from this farm
Go back where, go back where, back where you belong yea
City man get your city hands far from this farm
Now let me see if i got this straight
You come to this town, you say cause you like the place
Why on earth have you done everything
you could to change its small sweet face?
You say change is good well mister here’s a nickle and a dime
for every little town that grew and didn’t grow in crime crime
So now i gotta lock my car my house
and keep my pretty baby inside
Like a train running, troubles coming ,
I can feel it’s gonna hit us broadside
If you wanted to live in the city
why’d you come here?
Your overblown sense of entitlement
is screaming in my ear
City man, get your city hands far from this farm
City man, get your city hands far from this farm
Go back where, go back where,back where you belong yea
City man get your city hands far from this farm
far from this farm go….far from this farm go
far from this farm ..far from this farm yea yea yea
