- Hill Farmer's Blues Lyrics / with translationsGoing into Tow Law for what I need
Chain for the ripsaw, killer for the weed
Dog's at the back door leaving me
Don't feed him Jack, don't wait up for me
Going into Tow Law to fuel my fire
Shells for the twelve and razor wire
Dog's at the back door leaving me
Don't do Jack, don't wait up for me
So bad, so bad
So bad, so bad
I'm going into Tow Law to have my fun
Don't get me wrong, you were the only one
Behind my back Lord, you made a fool of me
Don't do Jack, don't wait up for me
So bad, so bad
So bad, so bad
So bad, so bad
...
Chain for the ripsaw, killer for the weed
Dog's at the back door leaving me
Don't feed him Jack, don't wait up for me
Going into Tow Law to fuel my fire
Shells for the twelve and razor wire
Dog's at the back door leaving me
Don't do Jack, don't wait up for me
So bad, so bad
I'm going into Tow Law to have my fun
Don't get me wrong, you were the only one
Behind my back Lord, you made a fool of me
Don't do Jack, don't wait up for me
So bad, so bad
So bad, so bad
So bad, so bad
