[00:00.00]The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn - Alison Krauss & Union Station
[00:37.91]Tell you a little story and it won't take long
[00:47.71]'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn
[00:56.51]The reason why I never could tell
[01:05.81]For that young man was always well
[01:17.10]He planted his corn in the month of June
[01:26.52]And by July it was up to his eyes
[01:35.76]Come September came a big frost
[01:45.18]And all the young man's corn was lost
[02:15.25]His story kith had just begun
[02:21.81]Said"Young man have you hoed some corn"
[02:27.24]"Well I tried and I tried and I tried in vain
[02:34.17]But I don't believe I raised no grain"
[02:59.56]He went down town to his neighbor's door
[03:05.43]Where he had often been before
[03:10.73]Sayin'"Pretty little miss will you marry me"
[03:17.91]Little miss what do you say"
[03:41.81]"Why do you come for me to wed
[03:48.55]You can't even make your own corn grain
[03:54.16]Single I am and will remain
[04:00.90]A lazy man I won't maintain"
[04:09.39]He turned his back and walked away
[04:17.44]Sayin'"Little miss you'll rue the day
[04:23.99]You'll rue the day that you were born
[04:33.48]For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn"
