lyrics

Take me out to the flat lands where the pastures stretch for miles
No fences, no walls, except to keep our horses safe at night
We won't have to ask the government for our necessities
Supplemental welfare has me on my knees

We'll take only seeds with us an leave flowers in our wake
We will plant a field of dreams and burn our TVs at the stake
When the hunger pains are too much to bear and I've got no place to live
We will swim across the river, stick our shovels in the ground like our ancestors did
Pull the plug on what you take for granted and see the world outside your shell

We were not put here to lay to waste what's in this soil
I was not born to cast my life away in toil
No gods and no masters, no constitutions
Sometimes total destruction is the simplest, strongest solution
And when I die don't you take me to heaven just set my soul free
Leave my ashes in the woods, dig a hole, and plant a willow tree
