《The Farmer and the Lord》歌词

[00:00:00] The Farmer and the Lord - Jimmy Dean

[00:00:11] I was resting the other evening

[00:00:12] By the side of the road

[00:00:14] I saw an old farmer in the field

[00:00:17] That he just hold

[00:00:19] His face was all brown and wrinkled

[00:00:22] By the sun and the wind

[00:00:26] And he was talking to the Lord

[00:00:28] Just like he'd be talking to a friend

[00:00:33] 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

[00:00:45] That the fields are mighty dusty

[00:00:49] And it's been so unbearable hot

[00:00:51] That the kids were even gettin' fussy

[00:00:56] Now that grass down and the pasture

[00:00:58] It should be knee high if we

[00:01:01] Could just have a little shower Lord

[00:01:04] It might keep the calf from going dry

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

[00:01:11] You'd think I wasn't grateful why if you

[00:01:14] Didn't know me so well Lord

[00:01:15] You'd think I was down right hateful

[00:01:18] You'd think I forgot about

[00:01:19] That new calf that you sent

[00:01:21] And the money in the mail

[00:01:22] That took care of the rent

[00:01:25] Mama's cough's better

[00:01:27] And Johnny's home from the navy

[00:01:29] And that good Sunday dinner of hot chicken

[00:01:32] And dumplings and gravy

[00:01:36] And that new preacher you sent us

[00:01:37] Lord he's sure a fine young man

[00:01:42] Why he's just convertin' them sinners

[00:01:44] To beat the man

[00:01:47] Well I guess I'll mosey on home now

[00:01:51] Lord I won't take no more your time

[00:01:54] I guess there's plenty folks here

[00:01:56] About waitin' to ring your line

[00:02:00] Evening to you Lord and watch us over tonight

[00:02:04] Don't you worry about us now Lord

[00:02:06] 'Cause everything is gonna be all right
