The first song I ever wrote.

lyrics

Castles

Today it is a fine day in the sun
follow me my child
and give thanks to the one
for this goodness that has come
let the work be done

until today the cold has ceased to yield
makes it kinda tough
when you're working in the fields
and the grounds too cold to kneel
blisters peel

do you know just how it feels

and i pray that in a while we get some rain
gently fall from heaven
pour it's love into the grain
and put me on my feet again
i'll go insane

cause those city boys are back again to steal
the only thing I've ever had
my kids need their meals
and they come here with their deals
dirty deals

do you know just how it feels

and little johnny said to me today
daddy are they really
going to take it all away
why can't they let us stay
what could i say?

your politicians never find the time
to listen to my troubles
they just say I'm out of line
and I'm falling far behind
I'm in a bind

do you know just how it feels

(when the dogs are at your heels
when the world's at their command
it's all just castles in the sand)
