[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
E-I, E-I, E-i-O-O
We like, we like to watch it grow
You-I, me-I, she-I must know
That everything around us is golden

[Verse 2]
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"

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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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
