Fred Eaglesmith - Yellow Barley Straw lyrics

rate me

He's got a heart made of yellow barley straw

All wrapped up in calico patches

And plum chuck full of love

He looks out over the fields

Every year's losses

Every year's yields

Every year's dreams

A hundred bushels to an acre

And tomorrow you know

The bank is gonna come and take it

Take it all away

He got a letter in the mail

It was only

Why it was only yesterday

But he just goes on believin'

And you can't sow crops if the ground ain't even

So he tills the soil

He drills the seed till dawn

His heart is made of yellow barley straw

Barley straw
