I rise at six and then I feed the chicks
And I'm feeling lonesome and blue
And when I milk the cow it seems, somehow
My thoughts keep straying to you
And as the horse and I plough the field nearby
Your memory I can't erase
For while I walk at the rear of the horse, my dear
I seem to see your face

I'm gonna sow the seed of deep devotion
Fertilize it with emotion,
Water it with warm desire
And then I'll reap the harvest of love.

Yes, I was happy as a pig in spite of the way that you looked at me
When I met you at the village dance
But you was in the ladies' excuse me at the time
I thought I would never have a chance.
But you let me walk you home across Blatt's Meadow
And I knew that with you I should be a hit
'Cause I got an old cow to get up walk away
So that you'd have somewhere nice and dry to sit

I'm gonna sow the seed of deep devotion
Fertilize it with emotion,
Water it with warm desire
And then I'll reap the harvest of love.

Side by side we will take a ride
In my horse and buggy one day
And when the daylight ends and the night descends
And my horse'll run out of hay
And I will kiss your lips, those tempting lips
The only ones that can thrill me
And I would hold you tight 'neath the stars so bright
If the wife ever finds out she'll kill me.

I'm gonna sow the seed of deep devotion
Fertilize it with emotion,
Water it with warm desire
And then I'll reap the harvest of love

I'm gonna sow the seed of deep devotion
Fertilize it with emotion,
Water it with warm desire
And then I'll reap the harvest of love

I'm gonna sow the seed of deep devotion
Fertilize it with emotion,
Water it with warm desire
And then I'll reap the harvest of love.....
