lyrics

Hands in the Dirt

Oh my hands in the dirt,
digging beds until it hurts
Thats how I’ll spend my mornings by and by
Oh there’s tea for my thirst,
but I have to finish first
Oh, I ain’t getting nowhere less I try

*When did I start to crave the feel
of soil against the spade it’s real
like very few things seem to be to me
Oh I’m out here pulling grass
and I am focused on my task
and I am glad that I am free to be serene*

Well a great joy that I know’s
planting seeds in little rows
Turn my face upon the vast blue sky
Well it’s down the road I go,
singing songs so soft and low,
and the ground will catch the water when I cry

*chorus*

When we bring the harvest in,
aching back and hot as sin
Crush the bugs and wipe the dirt from round our eyes
Oh I’ll chop and boil and stew,
it’s my gift from me to you,
oh, to have something in winter from July

*chorus*
