Barrel Springs Lyrics

Big Smith Barrel Springs

CHORUS:
Come forth you vandals
What were you thinkin'
Are you crazy
Or were you drinkin'
They're tearin' up the hills all around
What made you tear the Barrel Springs down

Such folly friend
Such a waste of time
You could get paid for just such a crime
There's only money
There's only fame
When you play
The vandal's game
And they're gratin' in
The Goodnight holler
To get a piece of the real estate dollar
One million years
Of the master's landscape
Gone with a pen stroke smile and a handshake
Oh me oh my it's gone it's gone it's gone

CHORUS

This is the time that land forgot
What was here
And what was not
They stay entwined
Like love and pain
My world is lost
Your world has gained
Don't worry boy
The wealth will spread quick
If you've got time sir
We'll drive to Chadwick
The earth is turned
The show is through
There's a happy man down in old Honolululu
Oh me oh my it's gone it's gone it's gone

CHORUS
