brothers four - the old settler's song lyrics
i’ve traveled all over this country
prospecting and digging for gold;
i’ve tunneled, hydraulicked and cradled,
and i have been frequently sold —
and i have been frequently so-o-old,
and i have been frequently sold:
i’ve tunneled, hydraulicked and cradled,
and i have been frequently sold!
for one who gained riches by mining,
perceiving that hundreds grew poor,
i made up my mind to try farming,
the only pursuit that was sure —
so, rolling my grub in my blanket,
i left all my tools on the ground
and started one morning to shank it
for the country they call puget sound —
for the country they call puget sou-ou-ound,
for the country they call puget sound,
i started one morning to shank it
for the country they call puget sound.
arriving flat broke in midwinter,
i found the land shrouded in fog
and covered all over with timber
thick as hairs on the back of a dog —
when i looked on the prospects so gloomy,
the tears trickled over my face
and i thought that my travels had brought me
to the end of the jumping-off place!
to the end of the jumping-off pla-a-ace,
to the end of the jumping-off place:
i thought that my travels had brought me
to the end of the jumping-off place.
i staked me a claim in the forest,
and sat myself down to hard toil:
for six years i chopped and i labored,
but i never got down to the soil —
but i never got down to the soi-oi-oil,
i never got down to the soil:
for six years i chopped and i labored,
but i never got down to the soil!
and now that i’m used to the climate,
i think that if a man ever found
a place to live easy and happy,
that eden is on puget sound —
no longer the slave of ambition,
i laugh at the world and its shams
as i think of my pleasant condition,
surrounded by acres of clams —
surrounded by acres of cla-a-ams,
surrounded by acres of clams,
as i think of my happy condition,
surrounded by acres of clams!
