James Blundell - Four Feet Tall lyrics

rate me

Right back at the beginning

Before I started to think

Worry about things beyond my control

Fear things I didn't understand

We had a hand-made house on a hill-side

A creek down below

Seldous trees all under the rand

Scratch the roof

When the night winds blow

We were so free

We had it all

Everyday was a dream

When we were four feet tall

Four feet tall

Before govern electricity

Refrigerators run on kerosene

Making ice from fire

It's still magic to me

Ms Barlow the ageless mild lady

Three times a week she'd do her round

Raising a dust cloud

Weaving through wattle

In the end only God could slow her down

We were so free

We had it all

Everyday was a dream

When we were four feet tall

Four feet tall

Frost crunching under foot

Rugging horses to keep them warm

Following my father like a shadow

Living the life I was born to

One day the Lord got bored

And wiped it away with the sweep of his hand

Finding my feet in a land without season

Searching for a reason

Trying to understand

We just don't know what the future holds

It's a struggle to survive

Treat each day like treasure

Live like a child

We were so free

We had it all
