Four long lines One darker than the rest Each one has a purpose Making borders on the land Farmer's pride You know he works too hard From a small aeroplane You can see the fields Heart-shaped hedges Japanese gardens Heart-shaped hedges Japanese gardens
A place to work and grow A place to work and grow A place to work and grow
Four long years One leaner than the rest The animals are thin And the pasture's dry Farmer's pride If the weather doesn't lie From a small aeroplane You can see the sea Lots of blue Very deep blue
Johnson sees the fields And more besides Still machines And black tar roads Countryside where The spirit never dies In his face All the history shows Farmer's pride As the rains came down
