lyrics

When you've plowed all your fields
And you've tilled all your rows
You can feel the slow drip
Of the sweat in your clothes

You've built all your walls and you've shingled them too
No matter what
The water won't ever get through

Well, you know you can find
All that order and calm
'Cause you've finished the job
And the good now can come

You've built all your walls and you've shingled them too
No matter what
The water won't ever get through

You've climbed all your mountains, you've swum all your seas and you still don't know
Don't know what it means
To be out on your own on your hands and your knees
You've dug at the ground and you've sown all your seeds
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

You've climbed all your mountains, you've swum all your seas and you still don't know
Don't know what it means
To be out on your own on your hands and your knees
You've dug at the ground and you've sown all your seeds
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

You've climbed all your mountains, you've swum all your seas and you still don't know
Don't know what it means
To be out on your own on your hands and your knees
You've dug at the ground and you've sown all your seeds
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

You've climbed all your mountains, you've swum all your seas and you still don't know
Don't know what it means
To be out on your own on your hands and your knees
You've dug at the ground and you've sown all your seeds
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
