Lyrics
Music & Lyrics by Dougie MacLean. Published by Limetree Arts and Music I took a place in a farm in Strathmore To bring the harvest home and watch the nature roar And we’d rise at dawn in the sun’s clear light In the sun’s clear light And we’d start our day with a sleepy head Sat on the big wood bench in the tractor shed And the grieve would say lads it’s time to go O it’s time to go CHORUS And it turns again endless and slow It turns again with every breath we blow For it’s the only thing we know Old Dave was first and we dare not leave Until his pipe was done and he’d rolled his sleeve And then we’d all set out to the far top field To the far top field Old Dave would bale and Tim and I would lead And we’d move the hay til our hands would bleed With a story told to keep our spirits high To keep our spirits high CHORUS I took a place in a farm in Strathmore To bring the harvest home and watch the nature roar And we’d rise at dawn in the sun’s clear light In the sun’s clear light We’d work the while we’d sweat our brow And we’d take our piece on the hazel knowe It would taste so good and Old Dave would smile Old Dave would smile CHORUS
