field hand lyrics

I could not repay in one lifetime
All the love you gave me
You've become such a woman
Still you let me call you baby

I love you now and I always will
I would gladly be the field hand
If you were the field

I'd take the rain it makes us grow
That's what you always told me
I'd take the plow firm in my hand
Just the way you hold me

I'd cultivate the valley and the hill
I would gladly be the field hand
If you were the field

I would sprinkle the morning dew
When the lonely nights were threw
I would hang a harvest moon
So its light would shine on you

To help you grow would truly be my will
I would gladly be the field hand
If you were the field
I would gladly be the field hand
If you were the field
