You Plant Your Fields - Kathy Mattea

My father said some things you learn

By only doing when it comes your turn

Everything comes around so be ready if you can

Prepare your heart like the farmer turns the land

And you plant your fields when the spring is tender

When the summer beats down you pray for rain

You hope for the harvest the long cold winter

And then you plant your fields again

He spoke right to my restless soul

Still wild and hungry and beyond control

For all that you dream there’s a time and a place

But you won’t know it till it comes your way

And you plant your fields when the spring is tender…

When the spring is tender

When the summer beats down you pray for rain

You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter

And then you plant your fields again

(You plant your fields) your fields again

(You plant your fields) your fields again

(You plant your fields) your fields again

(You plant your fields) your fields again
