Lyrics
Bless the farmer planting his seeds
Blessing the farmer for planting and nurturing growth.
Pull away that poison ivy
Removing obstacles or negativity (represented by poison ivy).
I dig all day to make a clearing
Working tirelessly to create space or opportunities.
Trouble goes away
Challenges dissipate, troubles fade away.
The clouds are disappearing
A positive shift occurs, problems or difficulties are vanishing.
I'm so lucky
Feeling fortunate or grateful.
On this side of the dirt
Alive and experiencing life.
Another day of some honest work
Engaging in meaningful, honest labor.
E-I-E-I-E-I Oh oh
Vocal expression denoting satisfaction or joy.
We like, we like to watch it grow
Enjoying observing growth or progress.
You, I, me, I, she I must know
Acknowledging different individuals and their involvement.
That everything around us is golden
Recognizing the inherent value and beauty in the surroundings.
Then one morning I woke from my dream
Transition from a dream to reality.
Saw my landlord staring at me
Encountering financial pressure or demands from the landlord.
He said "Pay me" or you'll have to leave
Threatened with eviction if payment isn't made.
"You've got 'til the end of the day"
A deadline imposed to resolve the financial situation.
E-I-E-I-E-I Oh oh
Self-restraint or discipline in a situation.
We got, we got self control
Realizing the need to depart or move on.
You, I, me, I, she I must go
Acknowledging the impermanence of things.
'Cause nothing really lasts forever
Understanding that nothing lasts indefinitely.
Oh, you've been to the end of the road
Having experienced the end or limit of a journey.
You've seen the piles of gold
Having witnessed wealth or success.
And I want to stay right here
Desire to remain in the current situation or place.
Don't got to tell me, I already know
Personal awareness without needing to be informed.
It starts beautiful, then goes Casino
Comparing a situation that starts well but ends in uncertainty or risk (Casino).
Oh place your bets on what comes next
Anticipating uncertain outcomes.
I bet we're all gonna get ice cream
Optimistic outlook on a mundane or unexpected result (getting ice cream).
E-I-E-I-E-I Oh oh
Continuation of being on a journey.
We are, we are on the road
Recognizing the collective journey.
You, I, me, I, she, I must go
Acknowledging the need to move forward or leave.
Into the great unknown
Heading into an unknown future.
E-I-E-I-E-I Oh oh
Continuation of the journey.
We are, we are on the road
Recognizing the collective journey again.
You, I, me, I, she, I must go
Reiterating the need to depart or move on.
Into the great unknown
Heading into the unknown future once more.
E-I-E-I-E-I Oh oh
Continuation of the journey.
We are, we are on the road
Repetition of acknowledging the collective journey.
You, I, me, I, she, I must go
Reiterating the need to move forward into the unknown.
Into the great unknown
Continuing the theme of heading into the great unknown.
