Farmer and the Lord - Curtis
While resting the other evening
By the side of the road
I saw an old farmer in the field
That he just hold
His face was all brown and wrinkled
By the sun and the wind
And he was talking to the Lord just like
He'd be talking to a friend
Well he said with his voice calm and quiet
Them corn tassels need sucking
I got no strength to tie it
Had no rain in so long
That the fields are mighty dusty
And it's been so unbearable hot
That the kids were even gettin' fussy
Now that grass down and
The pasture it should be knee high if we
Could just have a little shower
Might keep the calf from going dry
Oh but listen to me talking
You'd think I wasn't grateful why if you
Didn't know me so well
Lord you'd think I was down right hateful
You'd think I forgot about
That new calf that you sent
And the money in the mail
That took care of the rent
Mama's cough's better and
Johnny's home from the navy
And that good Sunday dinner
Of hot chicken and dumplings and gravy
And that new preacher you sent us
Lord he's sure a fine young man
Why he's just convertin'
Them sinners to beat the man
Well I guess I'll mosey on home now
Lord I won't take no more your time
I guess there's plenty folks
Here about waitin' to ring your line
Evening to you Lord
And watch us over tonight
Don't you worry about us now Lord
'Cause everything is gonna be all right
