Jethro Tull - Acres Wild

Back


From album Heavy Horses (1978)

Lyrics

Ill make love to you
In all good places
Under black mountains
In open spaces.
By deep brown rivers
That slither darkly
Through far marches
Where the blue hare races.

Come with me to the winged isle
Northern fathers western child.
Where the dance of ages is playing still
Through far marches of acres wild.

Ill make love to you
In narrow side streets
With shuttered windows,
Crumbling chimneys.

Come with me to the weary town
Discos silent under tiles
That slide from roof-tops, scatter softly
On concrete marches of acres wild.

By red bricks pointed
With cement fingers
Flaking damply from sagging shoulders.

Come with me to the winged isle
Northern fathers western child.
Where the dance of ages is playing still
Through far marches of acres wild.

You've made my night! i went to their 40th anniversary tour, it was fab, the man is sooo igile! AND has a bus pass! Sadly they didn't manage this one so i was a bit gutted as it's one of my favourites, so thanks for this, two thumbs WAY up!!!

This is one of my fave Tull songs. When Im trying to corrupt the souls of those unsullied by a liking for the band, this is the song I play for them.
