Painting pictures carving wood
Shilling for the fellow with a wife for keeping
Shilling for the fellow who brings the sheep in
Flask of wine on my feather bedding
Shilling for the fellow with a wife for keeping
Soon, my darling, soon, my darling
Soon, my darling, soon, my darling
How can we feed love on a farmboy's wages?
And tonight, when my work is done
We will borrow your father's carriage
Shilling for the fellow with a wife for keeping
And tonight, by the full moon's glow
On the farm and it's breaking my back
Soon, my darling, soon, my darling
Shilling for the fellow who milks the herd
Shilling for the fellow who brings the sheep in
We will borrow your father's carriage
Shilling for the fellow with a wife for keeping
We will drink and prepare for marriage
Shilling for the fellow who brings the sheep in
Be a rich man if I could
How can we feed love on a farmboy's wages?
People think that I'm no good
We will drink and prepare for wedding
We will drink and prepare for marriage
Shilling for the fellow who milks the herd
How can we feed love on a farmboy's
But the only job I do well, is here, on the farm
Shilling for the fellow who milks the herd
Deep under winter snow
Shilling for the fellow who brings the sheep in
How can we feed love on a farmboy's
Deep lay the lambs
How can we feed?
Shilling for the fellow who milks the herd
