The Turnpike Inn-Ian Anderson[00:00:01]

Go no farther: access denied down[00:00:23]

byways, freeways of the past.[00:00:26]

The superhighway tollhouse humbly[00:00:30]

begs your pause, so just hold fast.[00:00:34]

A word in ear, free marketeer suggests[00:00:38]

you ponders, and takes your choice.[00:00:41]

For right of passage, freight or message,[00:00:45]

change your horses, raise your voice[00:00:49]

in protest at the pretty penny[00:00:53]

taken for your mortal sins.[00:00:57]

But dally now in sweet surrender, drown[00:01:00]

sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:01:05]

Beware the brigand, pistols drawn,[00:01:16]

who offers life for modest fee[00:01:20]

and ends his days like poor John Austin,[00:01:23]

last man on the Tyburn Tree.[00:01:27]

The palest ale, the stoutest porter[00:01:31]

fortify the heart, the breast.[00:01:35]

Weary head on eider pillow, horse[00:01:39]

blanket over, down to rest.[00:01:43]

Though we too steal from honest wage,[00:01:46]

come lie with us, good kith and kin[00:01:50]

and dally now in sweet surrender,[00:01:54]

drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:01:58]

Drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:22]

Drown your sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:26]

Drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:29]

Though we too steal from honest wage,[00:02:40]

come lie with us, good kith and kin[00:02:43]

and dally now in sweet surrender,[00:02:47]

drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:51]

Drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:55]

Drown sorrows at the Turnpike Inn.[00:02:59]
