Lyrics
(Folk song)
1. Shall I show you how the farmer,
Shall I show you how the farmer,
Shall I show you how the farmer
Reaps his barley and wheat.
2. Look, ’tis thus, thus that the farmer,
Look, ’tis thus, thus that the farmer,
Look, ’tis thus, thus that the farmer
Sows his barley and wheat.
3. Shall I show you how the farmer…
Reaps his barley and wheat.
4. Look ’tis thus, thus that the farmer…
Reaps his barley and wheat.
5. Shall I show you how the farmer…
Threshes barley and wheat.
6. Look ’tis thus, thus that the farmer…
Threshes barley and wheat.
