lyrics

The plow tears the ground
The deed wil be mine
As long as the rock and timber hold on
To the railway line

With the blessing of the banker
I guess you could say
We dusted in the winter wheat
And watched it blow away

Our fate was carried in the NW wind
Because we believed, we have sinned
You can lay me down, I've prayed me some
The fields will burn, the flood will come

The earth yields no more
To the shovel than the plow
She's suffered as much
As the Lord would allow

Hardened and thin
Trembling in the frost
Tomorrow River
I can see that I should not have crossed

Our fate was carried in the NW wind
Because we believed, we have sinned
You can lay me down, I've prayed me some
The fields will burn, the flood will come

We flattened the hillside
Lifted the ore out of the ground
Now those engines
They don't make a sound

Our fate was carried in the NW wind
Because we believed, we have sinned
You can lay me down, I've prayed me some
The fields will burn, the flood will come

Our fate was carried in the NW wind
Because we believed, we have sinned
You can lay me down, I've prayed me some
The fields will burn, the flood will come
