[00:00:00] The Farmer And The Lord - Jimmy Dean

[00:00:01] Written by：J Wilson/E. Van Alstyne

[00:00:05] While resting the other evening by the side of the road

[00:00:11] I saw an old farmer in the field that he just hold

[00:00:16] His face was all brown and wrinkled by the sun

[00:00:19] And the wind

[00:00:23] And he was talking to the Lord

[00:00:24] Just like he'd be talking to a friend

[00:00:31] Well he said with his voice calm and quiet

[00:00:37] Them corn tassels need sucking

[00:00:40] I got no strength to tie it

[00:00:44] Had no rain in so long that the fields are mighty dusty

[00:00:47] And

[00:00:48] Well it's been so unbearable hot that

[00:00:50] The kids were even gettin fussy

[00:00:54] Now that grass down and the pasture

[00:00:56] It should be knee high

[00:01:00] If we could just have a little shower Lord

[00:01:03] It might keep the calf from going dry

[00:01:08] Oh but listen to me talking

[00:01:12] You'd think I wasn't grateful

[00:01:15] Why if you didn't know me so well Lord

[00:01:17] You'd think I was down right hateful

[00:01:20] You'd think I forgot about that

[00:01:22] New calf that you sent

[00:01:24] And the money in the mail

[00:01:25] That took care of the rent

[00:01:29] Mama's cough's better

[00:01:32] And Johnny's home from the navy

[00:01:35] And that good Sunday dinner of

[00:01:37] Hot chicken dumplings and gravy

[00:01:42] And that new preacher you sent us Lord

[00:01:45] He's sure a fine young man

[00:01:49] Why he's just convertin them

[00:01:50] Sinners to beat the man

[00:01:56] Well I

[00:01:58] I guess I'll mosey on home now Lord

[00:02:00] I won't take no more your time

[00:02:03] I guess there's plenty folks

[00:02:05] Here about waiting to ring your line

[00:02:09] Evening to you Lord

[00:02:12] And watch us over tonight

[00:02:16] Don't you worry about us now Lord

[00:02:18] 'Cause

[00:02:19] Everything is gonna be all right
