"The Great Unknown" lyrics

"The Great Unknown"

Bless the farmer planting his seeds
Pull away that poison ivy
I dig all day to make a clearing
Trouble goes away, the clouds are disappearing
I'm so alert, the only side of the dirt
Another day of some honest work

E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We like, we like to watch it grow
You-I, me-I, she-I must know
When everything around us is going dim

Then one morning, I woke from my dream
Saw my landlord staring at me
He said, "Pay me or you'll have to leave
You got 'til the end of the day"

E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We got, we got self-control
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
'Cause nothing really lasts forever

Oh, at the empty end of the road
You've seen all the piles of gold
I wanna stay right here

Don't got to tell me, I already know
It starts beautiful, then goes casino
Oh, place your bets on what comes next
I bet we all gonna get ice cream

E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We are, we are on our own
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
Into the great unknown
E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We are, we are on our own
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
Into the great unknown
E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We are, we are on our own
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
Into the great unknown
