Upfield lyrics

Artist  : Billy bragg 
Song : Upfield
 
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
shore
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
shore
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
shore
Their faces shone and they were gone and I was
left alone
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
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
shore
