[00:01:10] Iron clad feather feet

[00:01:12] Pounding the dust

[00:01:15] On octobers day

[00:01:16] Towards evening

[00:01:19] Sweat embossed veins

[00:01:21] Standing proud to the plough

[00:01:25] Salt on a deep chest

[00:01:28] Seasoning

[00:01:31] Last of the line at an honest days toil

[00:01:36] Turning the deep sod

[00:01:38] Under

[00:01:40] Flint at the fetlock chasing the bone

[00:01:46] Flies at the nostrils

[00:01:48] Plunder

[00:01:51] The suffolk

[00:01:52] The clydesdale the percheron vie

[00:01:56] With the shire on his feathers

[00:01:59] Floating

[00:02:01] Hauling soft timber into the dusk

[00:02:06] To bed

[00:02:07] On a warm straw

[00:02:09] Coating

[00:02:12] Heavy horses

[00:02:14] Move the land under me

[00:02:18] Behind the plough gliding

[00:02:20] Slipping and sliding free

[00:02:24] Now you're down to the few

[00:02:26] And there's no work to do

[00:02:28] The tractors on

[00:02:29] It's way

[00:02:31] Let me find you a filly

[00:02:33] For your proud stallion seed

[00:02:37] To keep

[00:02:38] The old line

[00:02:40] Going

[00:02:41] And well stand you abreast

[00:02:43] At the back of the woods

[00:02:47] Behind the young trees

[00:02:50] Growing

[00:02:52] To hide you from eyes that mock at your girth

[00:02:58] You're eighteen hands

[00:03:00] At the shoulder

[00:03:02] And one day

[00:03:03] When the oil barons have all dripped dry

[00:03:07] And the nights are seen

[00:03:10] To draw colder

[00:03:13] They'll beg for your strength

[00:03:15] Your gentle power

[00:03:18] Your noble grace

[00:03:20] And your bearing

[00:03:23] And you'll strain once again

[00:03:25] To the sound of the gulls

[00:03:28] In the wake

[00:03:29] Of the deep plough

[00:03:32] Sharing

[00:03:34] Heavy horses

[00:03:36] Move the land under me

[00:03:40] Behind the plough gliding

[00:03:43] Slipping and sliding free

[00:03:46] Now you're down to the few

[00:03:48] And there's no work to do

[00:03:50] The tractors on

[00:03:52] It's way

[00:04:16] Standing like tanks on the brow of the hill

[00:04:21] Up into the cold wind facing

[00:04:27] In stiff battle harness

[00:04:29] Chained to the world

[00:04:33] Against the low sun racing

[00:04:38] Bring me a wheel of oaken wood

[00:04:43] A rein of polished leather

[00:04:48] A heavy horse and a tumbling sky

[00:04:55] Brewing heavy weather

[00:05:00] Bring a song for the evening

[00:05:04] Clean brass to flash the dawn

[00:05:07] Across these acres glistening

[00:05:11] Like dew

[00:05:13] On a carpet lawn

[00:05:17] In these dark towns folk lie sleeping

[00:05:21] As the heavy horses

[00:05:22] Thunder by

[00:05:25] To wake the dying city

[00:05:28] With the living horsemans cry

[00:06:27] At once the old hands quicken

[00:06:31] Bring pick and wisp

[00:06:33] And curry comb

[00:06:36] Thrill to the sound of all

[00:06:40] The heavy horses

[00:06:43] Coming home

[00:06:47] Iron clad feather feet

[00:06:49] Pounding the dust

[00:06:52] On octobers day

[00:06:54] Towards evening

[00:06:57] Sweat embossed veins standing

[00:06:59] Proud to the plough

[00:07:02] Salt on a deep chest

[00:07:05] Seasoning

[00:07:08] Bring me a wheel of oaken wood

[00:07:13] A rein

[00:07:14] Of polished

[00:07:16] Leather

[00:07:17] A heavy horse and a tumbling sky

[00:07:24] Brewing heavy

[00:07:27] Weather

[00:07:29] Heavy horses

[00:07:31] Move the land under me

[00:07:35] Behind the plough gliding

[00:07:38] Slipping and sliding free

[00:07:41] Now you're down to the few

[00:07:43] And there's no work to do

[00:07:45] The tractors on

[00:07:47] It's way

[00:07:57] Oh heavy horses

[00:08:00] Move the land under me

[00:08:04] Behind the plough gliding

[00:08:06] Slipping and sliding free

[00:08:10] Now you're down to the few

[00:08:12] And there's no work to do

[00:08:14] The tractors on

[00:08:15] It's way

[00:08:17] Heavy horses

[00:08:20] Move the land under me

[00:08:24] Behind the plough gliding

[00:08:26] Slipping and sliding free

[00:08:30] Now you're down to the few

[00:08:32] And there's no work to do

[00:08:34] The tractors on

[00:08:35] It's way

[00:08:37] Heavy horses

[00:08:40] Move the land under me

[00:08:44] Behind the plough gliding

[00:08:47] Slipping and sliding free
