about
Part of a three song set recorded on the afternoon of Sept 13, 2011 at Studio 352 in San Francisco, Farmhouse was written as a duet for Lorne and friend Maggie Cassidy (NYC). The Wayhighs are Jake Wood (Diego's Umbrella, Super Adventure Club) on the drums, Ryan Lukas (The Real Nasty) on bass, and the ubiquitous Jordan Feinstein on keys.
lyrics
The birds have something to say as the sunlight, creeps in my eye
Days are getting longer but the weeds, are growing high
Two cups of coffee then we walk, to see what we can see
In the valley below, and the fog, unfolding to the sea
I live in a farmhouse, it’s where I spend my days
Morning to evening, the work turns into play
Singing songs that don’t make sense, except to you and me
Oo-oh la la la it’s a farmhouse melody
Dig me a hole for the poppies they’ll be, so pretty next year
He picked up the shovel and I opened, myself a beer
Well I don’t need a workhorse, cause I got a workin man instead
To plant my garden, and water my flower bed
Take the highway East, into the rising sun
Through the golden hills, where the horses run
To the farmhouse
