Harvest Songtext

but now i'm a new man
no more whiskey, no more gin
you can't buy no tractor
with the wages of sin

she sat me down one night
i was drunk and feeling mean
she said you're the biggest fool
that i have ever seen

and if you don't give me a home
and a new life to begin
i'm gonna put your lights out
and just go with the wind

well it don't matter
how wild you've been, brother
you can still make the harvest
if you have one another
so i got a few acres
not too far from here
we work hard all week
and we expect a good year

we bought an old mare
and we named her Peg
got a good hired hand
with a wooden leg

and whenever I start missing
my old high rolling life
I just have myself a pipefull
and get in bed with my wife

and it don't matter
how wild you've been, brother
you can still make the harvest
if you have one another

it don't matter
how wild you've been, brother
you can still make the harvest
if you have one another
