Someday I'll be a farmer, working the land 
 I wish I was a farmer, to work with my hands 
 'Cause it's been too long a ride, too high the fare 
 Well, I built an-climbed a mountain 
But it wasn't there 
 And I been lookin' all around looked everywhere 
 Well, I built and climbed a mountain 
 But it wasn't there 
 It isn't there, dum ta dum 
 It isn't here, it isn't there, nor anywhere 

 I'm gonna pick an apple right from the tree 
 I'm gonna eat the apple 'cause it grew there for me 
 And it's been to long a ride, too high the fare 
 Well, I built an-climbed a mountain 
 But it wasn't there 
 And I been lookin' all around, looked everywhere 
 To build and climb a mountain if it isn't there 
 It isn't there, dum ta dum 
 It isn't here, it isn't there, nor anywhere 

 I wish I was a farmer, working the land 
 Some day I'll be a farmer to work with my hands 
 'Cause, it's been too long a ride, too high the fare 
 You know I built and climbed a mountain 
 But it wasn't there 
 And I been lookin' all around, looked everywhere 
 Well, I built an-climbed a mountain, but it wasn't there 
 And I been lookin' all around, looked everywhere 
 To build and climb a mountain if it isn't there 
 It isn't there, dum ta dum 
 It isn't here, it isn't there, nor anywhere 

 I wish I was a farmer, working the land 
 Some day I'll be a farmer to work with my hands
