Heavy Horses (Steven Wilson Stereo Remix) - Jethro Tull[00:00:00]
Written by:Ian Anderson[00:00:03]
Iron clad feather feet pounding the dust[00:01:10]
An October's day towards evening[00:01:15]
Sweat embossed veins standing proud to the plough[00:01:20]
Salt on a deep chest seasoning[00:01:25]
Last of the line at an honest day's toil[00:01:31]
Turning the deep sod under[00:01:36]
Flint at the fetlock chasing the bone[00:01:41]
Flies at the nostrils plunder[00:01:46]
The Suffolk the Clydesdale the Percheron vie[00:01:52]
With the shire on his feathers floating[00:01:57]
Hauling soft timber into the dusk[00:02:02]
To bed on a warm straw coating[00:02:07]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:02:13]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:02:19]
Now you're down to the few[00:02:25]
And there's no work to do[00:02:27]
The tractor's on its way[00:02:29]
Let me find you a filly for your proud stallion seed[00:02:32]
To keep the old line going[00:02:38]
And we'll stand you abreast at the back of the wood[00:02:42]
Behind the young trees growing[00:02:48]
To hide you from eyes that mock at your girth[00:02:54]
And your eighteen hands at the shoulder[00:02:59]
And one day when the oil barons have all dripped dry[00:03:03]
And the nights are seen to draw colder[00:03:08]
They'll beg for your strength your gentle power[00:03:14]
Your noble grace and your bearing[00:03:20]
And you'll strain once again to the sound of the gulls[00:03:24]
In the wake of the deep plough sharing[00:03:29]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:03:36]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:03:41]
Now you're down to the few[00:03:48]
And there's no work to do[00:03:50]
The tractor's on its way[00:03:52]
Standing like tanks on the brow of the hill[00:04:18]
Up into the cold wind facing[00:04:23]
In stiff battle harness chained to the world[00:04:29]
Against the low sun racing[00:04:34]
Bring me a wheel of oaken wood[00:04:40]
A rein of polished leather[00:04:45]
A heavy horse and a tumbling sky[00:04:51]
Brewing heavy weather[00:04:56]
Bring a song for the evening[00:05:01]
Clean brass to flash the dawn[00:05:06]
Across these acres glistening[00:05:10]
Like dew on a carpet lawn[00:05:13]
In these dark towns folk lie sleeping[00:05:19]
As the heavy horses thunder by[00:05:23]
To wake the dying city[00:05:27]
With the living horseman's cry[00:05:30]
At once the old hands quicken[00:06:29]
Bring pick and wisp and curry comb[00:06:34]
Thrill to the sound of all[00:06:39]
The heavy horses coming home[00:06:42]
Iron clad feather feet pounding the dust[00:06:49]
An October's day towards evening[00:06:54]
Sweat embossed veins standing proud to the plough[00:06:59]
Salt on a deep chest seasoning[00:07:05]
Bring me a wheel of oaken wood[00:07:11]
A rein of polished leather[00:07:16]
A heavy horse and a tumbling sky[00:07:20]
Brewing heavy weather[00:07:26]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:07:32]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:07:38]
Now you're down to the few[00:07:44]
And there's no work to do[00:07:46]
The tractor's on its way[00:07:48]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:08:01]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:08:07]
Now you're down to the few[00:08:13]
And there's no work to do[00:08:15]
The tractor's on its way[00:08:17]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:08:20]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:08:27]
Now you're down to the few[00:08:33]
And there's no work to do[00:08:35]
The tractor's on its way[00:08:37]
Heavy horses move the land under me[00:08:41]
Behind the plough gliding slipping and sliding free[00:08:47]
Now you're down to the few[00:08:53]
And there's no work to do[00:08:56]
The tractor's on its way[00:08:57]
