The Family Bible And The Farmer's Almanac 歌词

My father's father was the wisest man I ever knew Sixty years of education Seven years of school Farming kept his body strong At night the only books he owned Kepted his mind sharp as a tack The family bible and the farmer's almanac When to plant When to havest How you weed just what you sow When to look for rain and who to turn to when it don't There was a plan for defrost Salvation for the lost Words to live and die by front to back The family bible and the farmer's almanac One came from his mother Handed down the day she died The co-op sent the other Every year at christmastime He knew the seasons to the day Knew Paul and Peter by first name He could answer any question he was asked With the family bible and the farmer's almanac When to plant When to havest How you weed just what you sow When to look for rain and who to turn to when it don't There was a plan for defrost Salvation for the lost Words to live and die by front to back The family bible and the farmer's almanac He knew the way to get Through this life to the next While others spoke of faith He found the facts In the family bible and the farmer's almanac The family bible and the farmer's almanac
