In my mind's eye a plantation In the clearing is a platform station Into the frontline is how I'm coming They say in war all is fair I am headed to the fields In spite of my condition Whatever you thought You know I told you That I couldn't stop Through the desert out to the sea Weather-beaten through all four seasons There is love in my creation I've come back for all the right reason That ain't your castle You're not a queen That isn't yours You're so busy there protecting All this beauty's sticky sweet This naughty world is due for a good deed Give me your poor tired huddled masses Bring me the head of a mule and my glasses Sing that lonesome high melody Rumble young man but rumble behind me
