walt robertson - puget sound كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
i’ve traveled all over this country
prospectin’ and diggin’ for gold
tunneled, hydroliced, and cradled
and i have been frequently sold

[verse 2]
for one who makes riches at mining
perciving that hundreds grow poor
i made up my mind to try farming
the only pursuitin’ that is sure

[verse 3]
so i packed all my grub in a blanket
and left all my tools on the ground
started to ride off for to shank it
to the country they call puget sound

[verse 4]
arriving dead broke in midwinter
i found it enveloped in fog
and covered all over with timber
thick as hair on the back of a dog

[verse 5]
i tried to get out of that country
till poverty forced me to stay
then i became an old settler
now nothin’ could drive me away
[verse 6]
so i staked out a claim in the forest
and settled right down to hard toil
for two years, i chopped and i laboured
but i never got close to the soil

[verse 7]
but now i am used to the climate
i think that if man ever found
a place to be peaceful and quiet
then that place is on puget sound

[verse 8]
no longer a slave of ambition
i laugh at the world and its shams
as i think of my happy condition
surrounded by acres of clams

- walt robertson
