Now featured on Equestria Daily! 7/24/12 Thanks EQD! Please listen with the 720p version; it will sound better. This is because YouTube re-compresses the audio when it is scaling down the videos to smaller than 720p, which can make the audio on 480p or smaller videos sound terrible.

THE FARMER by Caerdwyn On the warm summer's evenin' On the train for Appaloosa I met up with a pony Drinkin' scotch and rye He wasn't much for talkin' So I left him to his whiskey And as I turned to go to bed He looked me in the eye His mane had once been golden But now was streaked with silver His coat, once red as ruby Was faded now to rust His mark was a green apple And his face, it was freckled There was just something about him That radiated trust. He said "I reckon that you're lonely And seekin' conversation But though it ain't my habit I could use some talkin' too You're young and you're naive In the hard ways of the world I can see it in your eyes colt I was once like you." "You gotta know when to grow 'em Know when to buck 'em Know when they need some rain When they need the sun You don't count your harvest While the fruit just ain't ripe yet They'll be time enough for parties When the season's done" At first I thought, He was talking 'bout growing apples The ramblings of a pony In his elder years But as his words came to me I realized his message And in his eyes of emerald I thought I saw his tears What he tried to tell me Was a valuable life lesson Things he'd learned the hard way He was passing on to me The joy and pains of life The wisdom of the ages I said "I hear what it is you're saying The next round will be on me." "You gotta know when to grow 'em Know when to buck 'em Know when they need some rain When they need the sun You don't count your harvest While the fruit just ain't ripe yet They'll be time enough for parties When the season's done" "You gotta know when to grow 'em (when to grow 'em) Know when to buck 'em (when to buck 'em) Know when they need some rain When they need the sun You don't count your harvest While the fruit just ain't ripe yet They'll be time enough for parties When the season's done" "You gotta know when to grow 'em Know when to buck 'em Know when they need some rain When they need the sun You don't count your harvest While the fruit just ain't ripe yet They'll be time enough for parties When the season's done"
