I'm A Bogman

So many people
Look at the bog
As a place that just lies dead
Nothin' to do for the body
Nothin' to give to the head
Take me where the heather and the moss grows
The turf lies row after row
Out there in the sun to dry
I breathe it in as I pedal on by
With the kids and the dogs
Muckin' together
Bringin' in the turf
No matter what the weather

(Chorus)
I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from
Yeah
I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from
(….)

I'd love to see Arizona
Or the west Australian sands
But my heart belongs to
Those precious wetlands
No matter where your travelin' takes you
Sure the bog will never leave you
Some people look for God above
But down in the bog I found love
Where the heather and the moss grows
The turf lies row after row
Out there in the sun to dry
I breathe it in as I pedal on by
With the kids and the dogs
Muckin' together
Bringin' in the turf
No matter what the weather

I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from
Yeah
I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from

[Diddly-fiddly Christie's verse!]

I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from
Yeah
I'm a Bogman
Deep down
It's where I come from
It's where I come from
It's where I come from
