Lyrics

[00:33] I tend the wheat field that makes your bread
[00:39] I bind the sweet veal, pluck the hens that make your bed
[00:45] Mother Nature & Mother Earth
[00:50] Are two of three women who dictate what I'm worth
[02:55][01:45][00:56] I'm the farmer
[02:58][01:49][00:59] I work in the fields all day
[01:51][01:01] Don't mean to alarm her
[03:02][01:53][01:03] But I know it was meant to be this way
[01:12] You cried a tear, I wiped it dry
[01:18] I put you up upon a pesestal so high
[01:24] If you should waver, if you should sway
[01:29] I'd catch you, spread my tiny wings and fly away
[01:34] You signed your picture with an O and X
[01:40] I bet you don't write "love" each time you sign your cheques
[01:57] All of this corn I grow I grow it all for you
[02:02] I took a hatchet to the radio I did it all for you
[02:07] You could have written back
[02:09] You could have said "thank you"
[02:19][02:16][02:13] I guess you've got better things,
[02:28][02:26][02:23][02:20] Better things to do
[02:33] You say you love me, is that the truth?
[02:38] Although they've heard the songs, my friends need living proof
[02:43] I know your address, I ring the bell
[02:49] I bring you flowers and a .22 with shells
[03:00] Never wanted to harm her
[03:08][03:05] I know it was meant to be this way
