[00:24.315]I tend the wheat field that makes your bread
[00:30.055]I bind the sweet veal pluck the hens that make your bed
[00:35.925]Mother Nature & Mother Earth
[00:41.415]Are two of three women who dictate what I'm worth
[00:47.205]I'm the farmer
[00:50.075]I work in the fields all day
[00:53.015]Don't mean to alarm her
[00:54.825]But I know it was meant to be this way
[01:04.755]You cried a tear I wiped it dry
[01:10.375]I put you up upon a pesestal so high
[01:15.985]If you should waver if you should sway
[01:21.665]I'd catch you spread my tiny wings and fly away
[01:27.545]You signed your picture with an O and X

[01:39.225]I'm the farmer
[01:41.895]I work in the fields all day
[01:44.765]Don't mean to alarm her
[01:46.525]But I know it was meant to be this way
[01:50.825]All of this corn I grow I grow it all for you
[01:56.635]I took a hatchet to the radio I did it all for you
[02:01.815]You could have written back
[02:03.435]You could have said"thank you"
[02:07.805]I guess you've got better things
[02:10.735]I guess you've got better things

[02:39.405]I know your address I ring the bell
[02:45.085]I bring you flowers and a 22 with shells
[02:50.885]I'm the farmer
[02:53.825]I work in the fields all day
[02:56.635]Never wanted to harm her
[02:58.565]But I know it was meant to be this way
[03:01.625]I know it was meant to be this way
