MOUNTAIN FIELD - Pete Sutherland
sung by Kieron Means, sung by Sally Rogers

It's one more year this mountain field I'll till
It's one more year this mountain field I'll till
No stones or buried sticks
Again can play me tricks
I wish I knew my darlin's heart as well

When it was fine and dry I prayed for rain
When it was fine and dry I prayed for rain
But when the raindrops fall
And all the weeds grow tall
It’s then I pray the sun will shine again

A farmer sows by season and by sign
A farmer sows by season and by sign
Not so, love's fragile seed;
It's sown in time of need
And it will not grow but by its own design
