Alison Krauss & Union Station - The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Tell You a little story and it won't take long,
  • 'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn.
  • The reason why I never could tell,
  • That young man was always well.
  • He planted his corn in the month of June.
  • By July it was up to his eyes.
  • Come September, came a big frost.
  • And all the young man's corn was lost.
  • His story, kith, had just begun.
  • Said: "Young man, have you hoed some corn?"
  • "Well I tried and I tried, and I tried in vain.
  • "But I don't believe I raised no grain."
  • He went down town to his neighbour's door.
  • Where he had often been before.
  • Sayin': "Pretty little miss, will you marry me?"
  • "Little miss what do you say?"
  • "Why do you come for me to wed?
  • "You, can't even make your own corn grain.
  • "Single I am, and will remain.
  • "A lazy man, I won't maintain."
  • He turned his back and walked away.
  • Sayin: "Little miss, you'll rue the day.
  • "You'll rue the day that you were born.
  • "For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn."...
