we want the land - king driscolls lyrics

Loading...

we want folk in the fields and smoke in the lanes
of villages left empty by commuter trains
want real and alive, not a picture postcard
and we want the land

we are farmers and crofters and we’re hardworking souls
but we don’t want employment where we do what we’re told
want to build a new future with our own bare hands
and we want the land

well, we can’t pay house prices and we can’t pay the rent
we can tow an old trailеr, we can put up a tent
we can makе the farmhouse and fields our new homes
if we had the land

we could work fields by hand from morning to late
without combines or tractors or glysophosphate
[?] we take away with our sweat
if we had the land

and the woodlands could ring with the sound of the axe
we’d carry cartloads and boatloads and loads on our backs
and we’d take what we needed and [?] to grow back
if we had the land

and the villages would bristle with nightlife once more
they’re stomping, they’re spinning on the hardwood pub floor
and the late bus to town wouldn’t run anymore
if we had the land
with scr*p metal, old floorboards, and fresh*coppiced wood
we[?] build a ramshackle england where the old one once stood
and it wouldn’t be perfect, but it would be good
if we had the land

so if you feel what i’m singing, or you just hate your job
you like manual labor or upsetting sn0bs
join the raggle*taggle [?] that they call a mob
and cry “we want the land!”
