The life of farming is different
Than anything else you will see
For you work out with nature
So perfect it is for me
I start my day out very early
Oftentimes in the chilly fog
In the barn I milk the cows
Then dump out feed for the hogs
I smile at the neigh of the horses
As they stumble in their stalls
Waiting for a scoop of grain
As they stand so lovely and tall
I enter the hen house right after
Bold colors streak across the sky
I gather those warm hen eggs
To go with bacon I plan to fry
I welcome the smell of coffee
Bacon and eggs to start the day
No other world would I want
It’s a place I’ll always stay!
