Harvest Day

Written by John Teague

You’re an honest kind of lovable tongue 

Like the smell of cinnamon and rum 

But Honey you don’t have a filter 

And money never mattered until today  

Funny how laughter can go away 

When the cents don’t add up to a single dollar   

And it’s the wrong way 

And the wrong day 

But your daddy made you tough  

For these long summers and livin’ rough     


And it’s harvest day out on the farm 

Feathers, blood and mason jars 

This fruit we bare we’ve sewn  

With our elbows and shoulders 

I could tell you why we are who we are 

But it’d take a few dozen hours 

Just look around this didn’t happen in the month of May 

It took a lifetime to make another harvest day   


Well the cows need feedin’ and so do the hogs 

Another dead hen thanks to the dogs 

Another swarm has gone and left their tending momma 

You sent me to town for a gallon of milk 

I didn’t have the heart to tell you then 

So I told you that I had just forgot it  


Oh let this blade be sharp And the end come quick  

‘Cause the truth is bloody but it puts wind to sails  

And sails to ships   


And it’s harvest day out on the farm 

Feathers, blood and mason jars 

This fruit we bare we’ve sewn  

With our elbows and shoulders 

I could tell you why we are who we are 

But it’d take a few dozen hours 

Look around this didn’t happen in the month of May 

It took a lifetime to make another harvest day  

It took a lifetime to make another harvest day
