I've got a spade and a pick-axeAnd a hundred miles square of land to churn aboutMy old horse is weary but sincerelyI believe that he can pull a ploughWell I've moved into the jungle of the agriculture rumble,To grow my own foodAnd I'll dig and plough and scrape the weedsTill I succeed in seeing cabbage growing throughNow I'm a farmer, and I'm digging, digging, digging, digging, diggingNow I'm a farmer, and I'm digging, digging, digging, digging, diggingIt's alarming how charming it is to be a-farmingHow calming and balming the effect of the airWell, I farmed for a year and grew a crop of cornThat stretched as far as the eye can seeThat's a whole lot of cornflakes,Near enough to feed New York till 1973Cultivation is my station and the nationBuys my corn from me immediatelyAnd holding sixty thousand bucks, I watch as dumper trucksTip New York's corn flakes in the seaNow I'm a farmer, and I'm digging, digging, digging, digging, diggingNow I'm a farmer, and I'm digging, digging, digging, digging, diggingIt's alarming how charming it is to be a-farmingHow calming and balming the effect of the airNow look here sonThe right thing to sayIsn't necessarily what you want to sayThe right thing to doIsn't necessarily what you want to doThe right things to growAin't necessarily what you want to growYour own happinessDoesn't necessarily teach you what you want to knowWell I'm suntanned and deep, so's the horseAnd my hands are deeply grainedOld horse is a-grazing, it's amazingJust how lazily he took the strainWell my pick and spade are rusty,Because I'm paid on trust to leave my square of cornfield bareIt's alarming how charming it is to be a-farmingHow calming and balming the effect of the airWhen you grow what I growTomatoes, potatoes, stew, eggplants...Potatoes, tomatoes...gourds
