With Flute In Hand


With Flute In Hand

by Bud Lemire on Aug 22, 2003



Long ago, they brought us Aqualung

Ian Anderson singing all the songs sung

Never too old, to Rock N' Roll

Music of the flute, touching my soul



The Minstrel In My Gallery, playing at my beckoned call

Sure keeps me feeling good, my spirit standing tall

Their music floating, right into my ear

Lifting me up, as though they were here



They bring me Songs From The Wood

And let me tell you, they are good

Awarded as, a Heavy Metal band

Light as a flute in the hand



Listen as The Whistler plays

The Flying Colours to brighten the haze

Heavy Horses dance to the tune

Catfish Rising by the light of the moon



From Roots To Branches, and Locomotive Breath

They play the tunes, that we love the best

So, everyone, let's give thanks to this band

That plays the music, With Flute In Hand


This is a tribute to one of my favorite bands, Jethro Tull
