INXS Johnson's Aeroplane song lyrics

Four long lines, one darker than the rest

Each one has a purpose making borders on the land

Farmer's pride, you know he works real hard

From a small aeroplane you can see the fields

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

Four long years, one leaner than the rest

The animals are thin and the pasture's dry

The farmer's fine if the weather doesn't lie

From a small aeroplane you can see the sea

Lots of blue, very deep blue

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

Johnson sees the fields from all the sides

Steel machines and black tar roads

Countryside where the spirit never dies

In his face all the history shows

Farmer's pride as the rains came down

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Heart-shaped hedges, Japanese gardens)

(Ah) a place to work and grow, a place to work and grow
