The farmer kissed his wife for the last time
He said my dear, my life you'll always be mine
The rain's goin' away and the heats too hot for here
Promise I'll send money throughout the year
Money throughout the year
Shelter from the storm wait for my call
If fortune follows I'll be back by next year's fall (yeah I'll be back)
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
As he walked out from his life he said with a smile
I will not be back home for more than a while
Grass turned to steel
The sky turned to cloudy grey
I'll be back home to care for you one cold day
Care for you one cold day
Shelter from the storm wait for my call
If fortune follows I'll be back by next year's fall (yeah I'll be back)
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
Pack my bags and I'll be home
I would not leave you in this world alone
Pack my bags and I'll be home
I would not leave you in this world alone
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back my dear
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back
I'll be back for you
Be back my love
I'll be back
