When I first came to this land[00:00:00]
I was not a wealthy man[00:00:05]
So I got myself a farm[00:00:10]
And I did what I could[00:00:13]
So I got myself a farm[00:00:19]
Called my farm[00:00:22]
The muscle in my arm[00:00:24]
But the land was sweet and good[00:00:26]
And I did what I could[00:00:29]
That farm had neither dog or cat[00:00:33]
Not a soul to holler at[00:00:37]
So I got myself a wife[00:00:41]
And I did what I could[00:00:44]
So I got myself a wife[00:00:48]
Called my wife[00:00:51]
Run for your life[00:00:53]
But the land was sweet and good[00:00:55]
And I did what I could[00:00:59]
When a year had passed away[00:01:06]
I came home one Summer day[00:01:10]
Found I'd got myself a son[00:01:13]
And I did what I could[00:01:16]
Found I'd got myself a son[00:01:20]
Called my son[00:01:23]
My work's done[00:01:25]
But the land was sweet and good[00:01:27]
And I did what I could[00:01:31]
Well he grew up and left the farm[00:01:34]
Brought a wife back on his arm[00:01:38]
Soon the rooms were full of kids[00:01:42]
And I did what I could[00:01:45]
Soon the rooms were full of kids[00:01:48]
Called those kids[00:01:52]
Flip your lids[00:01:54]
But the land was sweet and good[00:01:56]
And I did what I could[00:01:59]
When I first came to this land[00:02:07]
I was not a wealthy man[00:02:12]
Now I've built my family tree[00:02:16]
And I did[00:02:20]
What I could[00:02:23]
Now I've built my family tree[00:02:27]
Called that tree[00:02:31]
Enough for me[00:02:32]
But the land was sweet and good[00:02:34]
And I did what I could[00:02:38]
And I called my farm[00:02:42]
The muscle in my arm[00:02:43]
Called my wife[00:02:46]
Run for your life[00:02:47]
Called my son[00:02:49]
My work's done[00:02:51]
Called those kids[00:02:53]
Flip your lids[00:02:55]
Family tree's[00:02:56]
Enough for me[00:02:58]
But the land was sweet and good[00:03:00]
And I did[00:03:08]
What I could[00:03:10]
