The Old Settler's Song - The Brothers Four[00:00:00]

I've traveled all over this country[00:00:11]

Prospectin' and diggin' for gold[00:00:15]

I've tunneled hydraulic ed and cradled[00:00:19]

And I have been frequently sold[00:00:23]

And I have been frequently so o old[00:00:27]

And I have been frequently sold[00:00:31]

I've tunneled hydraulic ed and cradled[00:00:35]

And I have been frequently sold[00:00:39]

For each man who got rich by mining[00:00:45]

Perceiving that hundreds grew poor[00:00:49]

I made up my mind to try farming[00:00:53]

The only pursuit that was sure[00:00:57]

So rollin' my grub in my blanket[00:01:01]

I left all my tools on the ground[00:01:05]

I started one mornin' to shag it[00:01:10]

For the country they call puget sound[00:01:14]

For the country they call puget so o ound[00:01:18]

For the country they call puget sound[00:01:22]

I started one mornin' to shag it[00:01:25]

For the country they call puget sound[00:01:29]

Arriving flat broke in midwinter[00:01:36]

I found it enveloped with fog[00:01:39]

And covered all over with timber[00:01:43]

Thick as hair on the back of a dog[00:01:47]

As I looked at the prospects so gloomy[00:01:52]

The tears trickled over my face[00:01:56]

And I thought that my travels had brought me[00:02:00]

To the end of the jumpin' off place[00:02:04]

To the end of the jumpin' off pla a ace[00:02:08]

To the end of the jumpin' off place[00:02:12]

I thought that my travels had brought me[00:02:16]

To the end of the jumpin' off place[00:02:20]

But now as I look all around me[00:02:26]

Observing the world and its shells[00:02:30]

I think of my happy condition[00:02:34]

Surrounded by acres of clams[00:02:38]

Surrounded by acres of cla a ams[00:02:42]

Surrounded by acres of clams[00:02:46]

I think of my happy condition[00:02:50]

Surrounded by acres of clams[00:02:54]

Surrounded by acres of clams[00:03:00]

By acres of clams[00:03:06]
