Life's a long song

Life's a long song

Life's a long song

But the tune ends too soon for us all

The first album I ever bought was the 8-track version of "Songs from the Wood" in about 1978.  It's still my favorite album and Jethro Tull is still my favorite group.  I have every Tull album on vinyl now up to Broadsword and the Beast, though I rarely listen to vinyl anymore.

One more... (tanxs fatlaz!)

Title track from said album... written by Ian Anderson.

Songs from the Wood 

D3

[D3 for LU]

Let me bring you songs from the wood:

[D3 for LU]

To make you feel much better than you could know -

[D3 for LU]

Dust you down from tip to toe -

[D3 for LU]

Show you how the garden grows -

[D3 for LU]

Hold you steady as you go -

[D3 for LU]

Join the chorus if you can:

[D3 for LU]

It'll make of you an honest man. 

[D3 for LU]

Let me bring you love from the field:

[D3 for LU]

Poppies red and roses filled with summer rain

[D3 for LU]

To heal the wound and still the pain

[D3 for LU]

That threatens again and again

[D3 for LU]

As you drag down every lovers' lane.

[D3 for LU]

Life's long celebration's here.

[D3 for LU]

I'll toast you all in penny cheer.

[D3 for LU]

Let me bring you all things refined:

[D3 for LU]

Galliards and Lute songs served in chilling ale.

[D3 for LU]

Greeting well-met fellow, hail!
