When The Days Cool Down



As the days cool down
Fire wood piled high
Under tarps tied down
Heavy stones in the ground
As the days cool down

In the yard the leaves play
Around the tables I have made
And the children gather sticks
Forts to build out in the thick
As the days cool down

Mother calls the ravens three
Temptation doubt and greed
And with heavy hearts they sing
Hear harmony begin
As the days cool down

Now the foreman’s cut my side
If I turn I’ll come untied
Says he feels the debt I’m in
Says he’ll work me till the end
When my days cool down

So I strap the handles down
Throw my weight behind the plow
Heaven knows the path is set
See the fields bend and stretch
As the days cool down

As the days cool down
Fire wood piled high
Under tarps tied down
Heavy stones in the ground
As the days cool down
