Lyrics of Boiling

You know life's been hard and not very charming
All I've ever known is farming farming
Hurrying all day long just toiling and toiling
Always in the hot sun and it's boiling boiling

My clothes started out clean but they're gradually soiling
Speedingly drenched in sweat cause the day's rapidly boiling

Now I don't mind no not at all-HUH!!
It's what I do from Spring until Fall
Plowing the ground to give it what it needs
Getting ready getting ready to plant the seeds


Now the best is yet to come and oh-how well I know
When I'm just standing back and watching watching it grow and grow
Lord..........I hope there ain't much pain and the crops don't fail
Please send enough rain but please don't send any hail

You can harvest too early, it could start spoiling
And you know something else? That would really get me boiling
Getting in the fields with my old combine
Threshing my crops at just the right time.

With the harvest over I took my combine to park it
Then I took my full truck of grain, I took it to market
But when I got there I could see there was a crisis
Whether it's soybeans or corn they went and lowered all the prices

Now that really makes me sad and gets my blood roiling
I'm working all day just trying to make ends meet.
After all that hard work, after all that toiling and toiling
It makes me so mad It gets me boiling, boiling, boiling.
