When are you gon-na come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
should have list-ened to my old man
You know you can't hold me for-ev-er
I did-n't sign up with you
I'm not a pres-ent for your friends to o-pen
This boy's too young to be sing-ing the blues - -
ah - - - -
ah - - - -
chorus-
So good-bye yel-low brick road
Where the dogs of so-ci-et-y howl
You can't plant me in your pent-house
I'm go-ing back to my plough
Back to the howl-ing old owl in the woods
Hunt-ing the horn-y back toad
Oh I've fin-'ly de-cid-ed my fu-ture lies
Be-yond the yel-low brick road-
ah - - - -
ah - - - -
