Heavy Horses - Jethro Tull[00:00:00]

Written by：Ian Anderson[00:00:00]

Iron clad feather feet pounding the dust[00:00:00]

On October's day towards evening[00:00:05]

Sweat embossed veins standing proud to the plough[00:00:10]

Salt on a deep chest seasoning[00:00:15]

Last of the line at an honest day's toil[00:00:21]

Turning the deep sod under[00:00:27]

Flint at the fetlock chasing the bone[00:00:31]

Flies at the nostrils plunder[00:00:36]

The Suffolk the Clydesdale the Percheron vie[00:00:42]

With the shire on his feathers floating[00:00:47]

Hauling soft timber into the dusk[00:00:52]

To bed on a warm straw coating[00:00:57]

Heavy horses move the land under me[00:01:03]

Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:01:09]

Now you're down to the few[00:01:15]

And there's no work to do[00:01:17]

The tractor's on it's way[00:01:19]

Let me find you a filly[00:01:22]

For your proud stallion seed[00:01:25]

To keep the old line going[00:01:28]

And we'll stand you abreast at the back of the woods[00:01:32]

Behind the young trees growing[00:01:37]

To hide you from eyes that mock at your girth[00:01:44]

You're eighteen hands at the shoulder[00:01:49]

And one day when the oil barons have all dripped dry[00:01:53]

And the nights are seen to draw colder[00:01:58]

They'll beg for your strength your gentle power[00:02:04]

Your noble grace and your bearing[00:02:10]

And you'll strain once again to the sound of the gulls[00:02:14]

In the wake of the deep plough sharing[00:02:19]

Heavy horses move the land under me[00:02:26]

Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:02:32]

Now you're down to the few[00:02:38]

And there's no work to do[00:02:40]

The tractor's on it's way[00:02:41]

Oh heavy horses move the land under me[00:02:45]

Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:02:51]

Now you're down to the few[00:02:58]

And there's no work to do[00:03:00]

The tractor's on it's way[00:03:02]

Oh heavy horses move the land under me[00:03:05]

Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:03:11]
