lirik lagu monument in green – big head todd & the monsters
well i rode the green across this country.
horses lived and died to take me.
men i killed to help me get there, further west i died to take me.
blackened face and dirty laundry. many days since i have eaten.
found myself a family. broke my back so i could feed them.
high in the wind. standing in the sun.
we’re going to raise up the heavens.
with a shovel and a gun.
i was so much younger then. i would never ever listen.
i am so much older now. i thought that things would end up different.
farewell, lover in green.
well, elizabeth she is my lady.
says the prayers and does the learning.
waking up all the children.
making love in early morning.
we took to building up the cities.
we built the churches in our cities.
happy in the green country.
and in the green they buried me.
high in the wind. standing in the sun.
we’re going to raise up the heavens.
with a shovel and a gun.
i was so much younger then. i would never ever listen.
i am so much older now. i thought that things would end up different.
farewell, lover in green.
oh, she sang hills (?) and made me cry
oh, she died so tender when i held you in the night.
well, i’m dead now.
my wife elizabeth is at my side.
i have children all around me.
i have grandchildren.
i have great grandchildren.
i have great great great grandchildren.
too many for me to remember.
maybe one of them is you…
high in the wind. standing in the sun.
you’re going to raise up the heavens.
with a shovel and a gun.
you’re high in the wind. standing in the sun.
you’re going to raise up the heavens.
with a shovel and a gun.
i was so much younger then. i would never ever listen.
i am so much older now. i thought that things would end up different.
farewell, lover in
farewell, lover in
farewell, lover in green.
