[00:00:00] When I first came to this land

[00:00:05] I was not a wealthy man

[00:00:10] So I got myself a farm

[00:00:13] And I did what I could

[00:00:19] So I got myself a farm

[00:00:22] Called my farm

[00:00:24] The muscle in my arm

[00:00:26] But the land was sweet and good

[00:00:29] And I did what I could

[00:00:33] That farm had neither dog or cat

[00:00:37] Not a soul to holler at

[00:00:41] So I got myself a wife

[00:00:44] And I did what I could

[00:00:48] So I got myself a wife

[00:00:51] Called my wife

[00:00:53] Run for your life

[00:00:55] But the land was sweet and good

[00:00:59] And I did what I could

[00:01:06] When a year had passed away

[00:01:10] I came home one Summer day

[00:01:13] Found I'd got myself a son

[00:01:16] And I did what I could

[00:01:20] Found I'd got myself a son

[00:01:23] Called my son

[00:01:25] My work's done

[00:01:27] But the land was sweet and good

[00:01:31] And I did what I could

[00:01:34] Well he grew up and left the farm

[00:01:38] Brought a wife back on his arm

[00:01:42] Soon the rooms were full of kids

[00:01:45] And I did what I could

[00:01:48] Soon the rooms were full of kids

[00:01:52] Called those kids

[00:01:54] Flip your lids

[00:01:56] But the land was sweet and good

[00:01:59] And I did what I could

[00:02:07] When I first came to this land

[00:02:12] I was not a wealthy man

[00:02:16] Now I've built my family tree

[00:02:20] And I did

[00:02:23] What I could

[00:02:27] Now I've built my family tree

[00:02:31] Called that tree

[00:02:32] Enough for me

[00:02:34] But the land was sweet and good

[00:02:38] And I did what I could

[00:02:42] And I called my farm

[00:02:43] The muscle in my arm

[00:02:46] Called my wife

[00:02:47] Run for your life

[00:02:49] Called my son

[00:02:51] My work's done

[00:02:53] Called those kids

[00:02:55] Flip your lids

[00:02:56] Family tree's

[00:02:58] Enough for me

[00:03:00] But the land was sweet and good

[00:03:08] And I did

[00:03:10] What I could
