Je score:
Words & music by steven page & ed robertson I tend the wheat field that makes your bread. I bind the sweet veal, pluck the hens that make your bed. Mother nature & mother earth Are two of three women who dictate what Im worth Chorus: Im the farmer. I work in the fields all day. Don't mean to alarm her, But I know it was meant to be this way. You cried a tear, I wiped it dry I put you up upon a pedestal so high If you should waiver, if you should sway Id catch you, spread my tiny wings and fly away. You signed your picture with an o and x I bet you don't write love each time you sign your cheques. Chorus All of this corn I grow I grow it all for you I took a hatchet to the radio I did it all for you You could have written back, You could have said thank you I guess youve got better things, Better things to do. You say you love me, is that the truth? Although they've heard the songs, my friends want living proof. I know your address, I ring the bell I bring you flowers and a .22 with shells. Im the farmer I work in the fields all day Never wanted to harm her But I know it was meant to be this way.
