Tadpole

Moving to the country I tried so hard to stop Gonna bring my pitcher down to the river Gonna fill it to the top Ramshackle city, tax paying dues The richest man won’t shake my hand But he’ll put holes in my shoes Maybe handsome molly Will make this house a home We’ll milk the cows and kill the sow Once her babies have all grown I wish I were in london Or some other seaport town Away I’d row in a wooden boat And sail the ocean round Moving to the country I got to get away From the cars and the planes And all the disdain that makes me feel this way I am just a tadpole And I can’t lose my tail or learn to breathe air if no one cares if I win or if I fail Would you even notice If I began to rust? Or if my pond dried up in the sun And I was left in the dust Wayfaring stranger Tell me what to do For I’ve grown up with bad, bad luck So can I follow you? The rooster calls the morning Out of her front door Gonna have me a daughter and drink me some water From the puddle on the floor Remember handsome molly The flowers in your hair Where the river flows is where I’ll go And can you meet me there? Moving to the country I got to get away From the cars and the planes And all the disdain that makes me feel this way I am just a tadpole And I can’t lose my tail or learn to breathe air if no one cares if I win or if I fail
