lyrics

The grass is bluer than I ever seen
Up in Kentucky ‘round Bowing Green.
Kentucky had a gold rush just like California,
And Humboldt County’s got the stuff I need.
I don’t wanna smoke no schwag-ass weed.
Save the seeds. Let’s get down on the farm.

Oh, Lord, where I long to be
Is back home pickin’ old country,
Out in the pasture staring down at cow patties.
I’m gonna find some purple fat daddies.
Now, hey momma, don’t you worry ‘bout me.
Hey Congress, it’s a free country.
I want some peace and harmony.
Let’s get down on the farm. Get down!

Down here in Georgia we got big pine trees,
And corn liquor knocks you down on your knees.
Ooh, momma! Fill the jar if you please.
Now pull up a chair and make yourself at home
We’re gonna pass around some of my homegrown,
And save the seeds. Let’s get down on the farm

Oh, Lord, where I long to be
Is back home smokin’ old country,
Out in the pasture staring down at cow patties.
I’m gonna find some purple fat daddies.
Hey momma, don’t you worry ‘bout me.
Hey Congress, it’s a free country.
I want some peace and harmony.
Let’s get down on the farm.
One more time!
