Farm On The Freeway - Jethro Tull[00:00:01]
Nine miles of two-strand topped with barbed wire[00:00:50]
Laid by the father for the son [00:00:56]
Good shelter down there on the valley floor [00:01:04]
Down by where the sweet stream run [00:01:10]
Now they might give me compensation [00:01:19]
That's not what I'm chasing I was a rich man before yesterday [00:01:24]
Now all I have got is a cheque and a pickup truck [00:01:31]
I left my farm on the freeway [00:01:36]
They're busy building airports on the south side [00:01:51]
Silicon chip factory on the east [00:01:56]
And the big road's pushing through along the valley floor [00:02:02]
Hot machine pouring six lanes at the very least [00:02:07]
Now they say they gave me compensation [00:02:14]
That's not what I'm chasing I was a rich man before yesterday [00:02:19]
Now all I have left is a broken-down pickup truck [00:02:27]
Looks like my farm is a freeway [00:02:31]
They forgot they told us what this old land was for [00:04:48]
Grow two tons the acre boy between the stones [00:04:53]
This was no Southfork it was no Ponderosa [00:05:02]
But it was the place that I called home [00:05:09]
They say they gave me compensation [00:05:17]
That's not what I'm chasing I was a rich man before yesterday [00:05:22]
And what do I want with a million dollars and a pickup truck [00:05:31]
When I left my farm under the freeway[00:05:34]
