Down on the Farm

Every Sunday morning bit 'fore daybreak
Down upon the farm, on the fishpond
All the little ducks, they go paddling
Look out goldfish, you're for breakfast
Sunday morning, hear those church bells ringing
High up in the trees the birds were singing
In the dewy grass spiders spinning
Rooster calls and cocks his doodle
All around the farm animals stirring
Through the morning mist the bulls are beefing
In the grassy meadows cows are munching
Daisy Bell, it's time for milking
There's such a lot to be done on the farm
In the sunshine, and when it's lunchtime
It's hop down the pub for a pint
Back on the tractor to finish the plowing
Standing all alone, Fred the scarecrow
Hasn't got a clue how the wheat grows
Doesn't mind the rain, hates the cold though
Specially when those icewinds blow snow
All along the lane, bees are buzzing
Little furry things in hedgerows scurrying
In amongst the corn the bunnies are bouncing
Must have springs upon their feet
Behind the cowshed
The plowman is taking a peek
At the farmer's daughter
Who's hanging her undies in the sun
Better get on your boots and join us, down on the farm
(repeats)
Down here on the farm
It's a lovely day for country walking
The vicar's on his bike, Billy's skateboarding
Farmer and his dog out back shooting
Gun goes off and hits the tweeting
Lots of smelly stinks around the farmyard
Great big pile of sh... behind the rhubarb
Sitting in his pram, baby bunting
Does a burp and starts his grunting
Give him a drink, he's gone pink
Wants his mummy, needs changing, I think
Such a lot can be done on the farm
In the sunshine, and when it's lunchtime
It's hop down the pub for a pint
Sneak out the back way with Nelly the barmaid
To the woods
Better get on your boots and join us, down on the farm
(repeats)

Richard Sinclair Martina Franca, Italy
The leading voice of the Canterbury Scene. Beginning with the Wilde Flowers, on to Caravan, Hatfield & the North, Camel and all his recent group efforts, Richard Sinclair's singing and bass playing have been a constant source of delight for lovers of Canterbury music. A deep, low voice, a talent for memorable melodies few can match, plus an imaginative and fluid technique on the bass and guitar. ... more

Holdsworth is up there with McLauglin in the jazzrock-fusion pantheon. And like McLaughlin he seems to have had an open mind for eastern spiritual music. This is quite beautiful. Check it out.
