Down On The Farm Lyrics - Singles - Joe Walsh

Out in the middle of nowhere 

Gathered around in the barn 

Animals all in agreement, they was down on the farm 

There was talk of all the boring hours 

Standin' around with nothin' to do 

It was just another boring evening 

With a pail of boring things to chew 

There was cows and horses and sheeps and pigs 

They was tired of the daily routine 

They was plannin' on havin' themselves a bash 

Gonna throw a great big wing-ding 

So they said 'let's do it, play some rock and roll' 

And they got all loose and had a few 

And before they knew it, they was out of control 

Turned into a regular zoo... 

They was tired of the daily routine 

Havin' themselves a great big bash 

And they was gathering steam 

And the pig grabbed a chicken, said 

Come on over, let's do-si-do a few 

And the chick said 'no, you're covered with mud' 

Called him a pig and it was true 

And every gol' dang one o'their tails was a waggin' 

Under the old horse-shoe 

That night the animals fell off the wagon 

And a tractor or two 

Well they was out in the middle of nowhere 

They was rockin' out in the barn 

They was tearin' it up in the hayloft 

Gettin' down on the farm
