Lyrics

Back to the Land
(The Starlings)
Tom Parker

    First time I saw her, she said to me
    I need a glass of water for my sorrows
    Last time I saw her, she said to me
    The devil’s in every dollar I know
    And I work so I may soon leave

    Lord take me back
    Lord take me back
    Lord take me back to the land

    We’re all keen on a far away place
    Where cool mountain waters can wash away the taste
    Of the bitterest city in all of its haste
    That’s where you sell yourself to buy your little place if you can

    I feel like I’ve departed
    From the very place where a peace inside me grows
    I feel so broken-hearted
    I can’t make a living off the land that makes me whole

    First time I saw her, she said to me
    I need a glass of water for my sorrows
