Artist/Band: Guns N' Roses
Lyrics for Song: Down On The Farm
Lyrics for Album: The Spaghetti Incident?



All I need is some inspiration
Before I do somebody some harm
I feel just like a vegetable
Down here on the farm

Nobody comes to see me
Nobody here to turn me on
I ain't even got a lover
Down here on the farm

They told me to get healthy
They told me to get some sun
But boredom eats me like cancer
Down here on the farm

Drinkin' lemonade shanty
Ain't nobody here to do me harm
But I'm like a fish out of water
Down here on the farm

I wrote a thousand letters
Till my fingers all gone numb
But I never see no postman
Down here on the farm

I call my baby on the telephone, I say
Come down and have some fun
But she knows what the score is
Down here on the farm

I can't fall in love with a wheatfield
I can't fall in love with a barn
Well everything smells like horse shit
Down here on the farm

Blue skies and swimming pools
Add so much charm
But I'd rather be back in Soho
Than down here on the farm

On the fucking farm !

Are you born in a fucking barn or what ?

Beeeee !
Hold still


Down On The Farm

Released on The Spaghetti Incident?, 'Down On The Farm' stands as a pivotal track in Guns N' Roses' discography, marking a significant shift from their hard rock roots to a more polished, pop-inflected sound. Recorded during the band's transition period, the song features Axl Rose's distinctive vocal delivery layered over a melodic structure that bridges the gap between their earlier aggression and the sophisticated arrangements found on Use Your Illusion. The recording reflects the band's experimentation with orchestral elements and lush production, showcasing a maturity that would define their later work. As a staple of their catalog, the song remains a testament to the group's ability to evolve while maintaining their core identity, offering a nostalgic yet fresh perspective on the band's journey through the 1990s.
