FARMER ELI |
|
|
The water at home
Is so cold, and so clear,
Made of finer crystal
Than a chandelier,
As good as grain,
And strong as beer--
Get drunk on the water at home!
|
|
| MARIA |
|
|
The water at home,
From the heart of the well,
Makes the best perscription
For a long, hot spell...
Calls from afar,
Like a dinner bell...
It's priceless, the water at home!
|
|
| BOTH |
|
|
Not sealed in the ground,
Shut off from the pur'fyin airs of heaven...
No! Open to the sun...
Bucket brings the flavor and scent of heaven.
|
|
| FARMER
ELI |
|
|
And the soil at home
Is as dark as the sky
On a starless midnight,
And I'll tell you why...
It's rich as life,
'Cause it's watered by
The fragrant and flavorful...
|
|
| MARIA |
|
|
Moist and miraculous...
|
|
| FARMER
ELI |
|
|
Water at home.
