I'm Gonna Be A Farmer Out on the farm where dogs run free. My old farm house is good enough for me. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. Yeah yeah. Gotta plant them beans. Gotta bail that hay. Gotta milk them cows ever' day. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. Yeah yeah. I got a big red barn where I'm safe and warm. I get a good night's sleep with the pigs and the sheep. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. Yeah yeah. In my barn I got a ol' gray mare an' my uncle Zeke who ain't got no hair. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. I'm gonna be a farmer. Yeah yeah. Mark Sebring (1975)

"I'm Gonna Be A Farmer" was the first song I ever wrote.

Walk Around The Block

One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, walk.
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, walk.
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, walk.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.

Well, turn your hearing aid on and join me hon'.
I ain't had so much fun since I was fifty-one.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.
We're gonna walk, walk, walk till our shoes feel tight.
We're gonna walk, gonna walk around the block tonight.

When you're sixty-two and I'm sixty-four
We'll take a nap and then we'll walk some more.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.
We're gonna walk, walk, walk till our shoes feel tight.
We're gonna walk, gonna walk around the block tonight.

When your birthday comes and you're seventy-seven
We'll keep on walkin' till we get to Heaven.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.
We're gonna walk, walk, walk till our shoes feel tight.
We're gonna walk, gonna walk around the block tonight.

When we're eighty-one and eighty-two
Geritol will pull us through.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.
We're gonna walk, walk, walk till our shoes feel tight.
We're gonna walk, gonna walk around the block tonight.

When I'm a hundred and twelve I'll buy a cane
So we can walk around the block again.
We're gonna walk around the block tonight.
We're gonna walk, walk, walk till our shoes feel tight.
We're gonna walk, gonna walk around the block tonight.
