Sarah Harmer - Escarpment Blues lyrics

Your rating:

If they blow a hole in my backyard
Everyone is gonna run away
The creeks won't flow to the Great Lake below
Will the water in the wells still be okay?

If they blow a hole in the backbone
The one that runs cross the muscles of the land
Oh, we might get a load of stone for the road
But I don't know how much longer we can stand

We'll need to build some new apartments
And I know we're gonna have to fix the roads
But if we blow another hole in the escarpment
The wild ones won't have anywhere to go

If they blow a hole in my backyard
Everyone is gonna run away
The creeks won't flow to the Great Lake below
Will the water in the wells still be okay?

We'll keep driving on the Blind Line
If we don't know where we wanna go
Even knowledge that's sound can get watered down
The truth can get sucked out the car window
The truth can get sucked out the car window

We're two third water
What do we really need?
But sun, showers
Soil and seed

We're two third water
The aquifers provide
Deep down in the rock
There's a pearl inside

If they blow a hole in the backbone
The one that runs across the muscles of the land
Oh, we might get a load of stone for the road
But I don't know how much longer we can stand

Oh, we might get a load of stone for the road
But I don't know how much longer we can stand
