Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Stay on the Farm
Subject: RE: stay on the farm
Sandy,

That's the song I'm thinking of although I'm trying to remember a slightly different version. (I may have heard Cathy Fink sing it. or maybe the Red Clay Ramblers) There's a verse "You talk of the mines of Australia, ...." and the vortex of fashion was in there. The chorus I remember is:Stay on the farm, boys, stay on the farm, though profits come in rather slow. Stay on the farm, boys, stay on the farm, don't be in a hurry to go.

What's a Grange song book?

Thanks, Laura
