The Painful Plough Lyrics - Nick Hart
Come all you noble ploughmen of courage stout and bold
Who labour all the winter through stormy winds and cold
To crown your fields with plenty and your farmyards to renew
That bread may not be wanting, we must use the faithful plough.
So Adam was a ploughman when ploughing first begun
And the next that did succeed him was Cain, his eldest son
Some of his generation the calling now pursue,
So we are all dependent upon the faithful plough.
Says the ploughman to the gardener, "Count not your trade as ours
But walk your curious borders and gaze upon your flowers
If it was not for the ploughman, both rich and poor would rue
For they are all dependent upon the faithful plough."
Behold the wealthy merchants who trades in foreign seas
To bring forth gold and treasure for those that lives at ease
With finest silks and satins, and fruits and dainties too
They are all brought from the Indies by virtue of the plough.
I hope that those who hear this will count in what is true
That we cannot sail the ocean wide without the faithful plough
For they must have beer and biscuits, plum pudding, flour, and peas
For to feed the jolly sailor boys who plough the raging seas.
Well, I hope there’s none offended, now, with me for singing this
For it never was intended to be anything amiss
But if you consider it rightly, you will find out that it’s true
That all the trades I’ve mentioned depend upon the plough
So come all you noble ploughmen of courage stout and bold
Who labour all the wintertime through stormy winds and cold
To crown your fields with plenty and your farmyards to renew
That bread may not be wanting, we must use the faithful plough
