billy bragg - upfield lyrics
i’m going upfield, way up on the hillside
i’m going higher than i’ve ever been before
that’s where you’ll find me, over the horizon
wading in the river, reaching for that other sh-r-
i dreamed i saw a tree full of angels, up on primrose hill
and i flew with them over the great wen till i had seen my fill
of such poverty and misery sure to tear my soul apart
i’ve got a socialism of the heart, i’ve got a socialism of the heart
i’m going upfield, way up on the hillside
i’m going higher than i’ve ever been before
that’s where you’ll find me, over the horizon
wading in the river, reaching for that other sh-r-
the angels asked me how i felt about all i’d seen and heard
that they spoke to me, a pagan, gave me ’cause to doubt their word
but they laughed and said, “it doesn’t matter if you’ll help us in our art
you’ve got a socialism of the heart, you’ve got a socialism of the heart”
i’m going upfield, way up on the hillside
i’m going higher than i’ve ever been before
that’s where you’ll find me, over the horizon
wading in the river, reaching for that other sh-r-
their faces shone and they were gone and i was left alone
and i walked these ancient empire streets till i came tearful to my home
and when i woke next morning, i vowed to play my part
i’ve got a socialism of the heart, i’ve got a socialism of the heart
that’s why i’m going upfield, way up on the hillside
i’m going higher than i’ve ever been before
that’s where you’ll find me, over the blue horizon
wading in the river, reaching for that other sh-r-
