I tend the wheat field that makes your bread[00:00:24]
I bind the sweet veal pluck the hens that make your bed[00:00:30]
Mother Nature & Mother Earth[00:00:35]
Are two of three women who dictate what I'm worth[00:00:41]
I'm the farmer[00:00:47]
I work in the fields all day[00:00:50]
Don't mean to alarm her[00:00:53]
But I know it was meant to be this way[00:00:54]
You cried a tear I wiped it dry[00:01:04]
I put you up upon a pesestal so high[00:01:10]
If you should waver if you should sway[00:01:15]
I'd catch you spread my tiny wings and fly away[00:01:21]
You signed your picture with an O and X[00:01:27]
I bet you don't write "love" each time you sign your cheques[00:01:33]
I'm the farmer[00:01:39]
I work in the fields all day[00:01:41]
Don't mean to alarm her[00:01:44]
But I know it was meant to be this way[00:01:46]
All of this corn I grow I grow it all for you[00:01:50]
I took a hatchet to the radio I did it all for you[00:01:56]
You could have written back[00:02:01]
You could have said "thank you"[00:02:03]
I guess you've got better things [00:02:07]
I guess you've got better things [00:02:10]
I guess you've got better things [00:02:13]
Better things to do[00:02:15]
Better things to do[00:02:18]
Better things to do[00:02:20]
Better things to do[00:02:23]
You say you love me is that the truth [00:02:27]
Although they've heard the songs my friends need living proof[00:02:33]
I know your address I ring the bell[00:02:39]
I bring you flowers and a 22 with shells[00:02:45]
I'm the farmer[00:02:50]
I work in the fields all day[00:02:53]
Never wanted to harm her[00:02:56]
But I know it was meant to be this way[00:02:58]
I know it was meant to be this way[00:03:01]
I know it was meant to be this way[00:03:04]
