[Verse 1]
As the days cool down
Firewood piled high
Under tarps tied down
Heavy stones in the ground
As the days cool down
[Verse 2]
In the yard the leaves play
Around the tables I have made
And the children gather sticks
Forts to build out in the thick
As the days cool down
[Verse 3]
Mother calls the ravens three
Temptation, doubt, and greed
And with heavy hearts they sing
Hear harmony begin
As the days cool down
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Now the foreman's cut my side
An' if I turn I'll come untied
Says he feels the debt I'm in
Says he'll work me till the end
When my days cool down
[Verse 5]
So I strap the handles down
An' throw my weight behind the plow
Heaven knows the path is set
See the fields bend and stretch
As the days cool down
[Verse 1]
As the days cool down
Firewood piled high
Under tarps tied down
Heavy stones in the ground
As the days cool down
