"Farmer's Wife" lyrics

"Farmer's Wife"

I will make a meal for you and bring it to the field
I will do this every day and not say how I feel
I will bring the kids so they can see that you work hard
I will stay up late to hear you drive into the yard

I will give the shelves a dust on Sunday afternoon
You will be relaxing as the children watch cartoons
I will tend the blooming flowers all along the house
I will put you all the bed, quiet as a mouse

Love

I will feel the seasons change and shift around the coats
What it is I do all day, no one really knows
But I can tell by the clouds, what the sky will bring
And I will do my change in silence and teach the kids to sing

Love

I will hang the clothes to dry in the summer wind
I will breathe as day grows nigh
And we'll begin again
