Bhi Bhiman - Take What I'm Given lyrics

I think that I'd like to go live on a farm And live out my days like a loose ball of yarn Sit 'neath the oak tree, my sweetheart and me And carve out my name and my own destiny Yes I'll take what I'm given I'll buy me a hog and some acres of land And dig through the soil with the strength of my hands Pray for the rains to come nourish my crop And love that old land 'til the day that I drop Yes I'll take what I'm given I've lived in the city and I've seen all its charm And I know what it feels like to be in her arms But all this technology's wearing me down It lifts us all up, then we're slammed to the ground There's too many egos in fast moving cars Thinking that their lives are worth more than ours I'd love to live life like a lazy old hound Man wasn't made to be this tightly wound So I'll take what I'm given Yes I'll take what I'm given
