5 Chinese Brothers ~ Like A Mole In The Ground


(tom meltzer) Based on bascom lunsford's "mole in the ground" I wish that i was a mole in the ground Like a mole in the ground, i would root that mountain down Tree by tree and town by town I wish i was a mole in the ground And i wish that i was a lizard in the spring Like a lizard in the spring, i would hear the robin sing I'd feast upon the robin's eggs and i'd not regret a thing I wish i was a lizard in the spring But i'm just a man who loves a woman who's drifting away The miles and miles between us grow wider every day I wish that i was strong or free or not in love or dead Better still, i wish i was a mole in the ground I don't like working for the railroad man For the railroad will kill you just as fast as it can It drinks your blood like wine and throws your bones to the wind I don't like working for the railroad, man And tempy oh tempy wants a $100 shawl But i got $90, $90, that is all Our house is not a home it's just a roof and four walls But tempy wants a $100 shawl Chorus Tempy, oh tempy let your hair hang low Let your hair hang low while i rosin up my bow We'll pretend we are lovers like we were so long ago Tempy, let your hair hang low I wish i was a mole in the ground etc Don't wait up for me 'cause tonight i think i'm going downtown more free lyrics

Based on bascom lunsford's "mole in the ground"

I wish that i was a mole in the ground
Like a mole in the ground, i would root that mountain down
Tree by tree and town by town
I wish i was a mole in the ground

And i wish that i was a lizard in the spring
Like a lizard in the spring, i would hear the robin sing
I'd feast upon the robin's eggs and i'd not regret a thing
I wish i was a lizard in the spring

But i'm just a man who loves a woman who's drifting away
The miles and miles between us grow wider every day
I wish that i was strong or free or not in love or dead
Better still, i wish i was a mole in the ground

I don't like working for the railroad man
For the railroad will kill you just as fast as it can
It drinks your blood like wine and throws your bones to the wind
I don't like working for the railroad, man

And tempy oh tempy wants a $100 shawl
But i got $90, $90, that is all
Our house is not a home it's just a roof and four walls
But tempy wants a $100 shawl

Chorus

Tempy, oh tempy let your hair hang low
Let your hair hang low while i rosin up my bow
We'll pretend we are lovers like we were so long ago
Tempy, let your hair hang low

I wish i was a mole in the ground etc
Don't wait up for me 'cause tonight i think i'm going downtown

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
