"A Hometown Ditty"

Who can stand around all day, chewing her cud?
I can darlin’, I can!

Who’d rather be in the nice cool mud?
I would darlin’, I would!

Who’s workin’ hard, plowin’ and mowin’?
I am, darlin’, I am!

Who makes sure that the crops keep growin’?
I do darlin’, I do!

Who can soar high in the quiet blue sky?
I can darlin’, I can!

Who can bake a tart-sweet apple pie?
I can darlin’, I can!

Who’s got fleece as white as the clouds?
I do darlin’, I do!

Who chimes the church bell, long and loud?
I do, darlin’, I do!

Who’s the lucky one with a red balloon?
I am, darlin’, I am!

Who’s gonna check her mailbox soon?
I am darlin’, I am!

Who’s in the hayloft, rollin’ around?
I am, darlin’, I am!

Who’s doin’ errands in the quaint country town?
I am darlin’, I am!

Who’s gonna milk her cows tonight?
I am, darlin’, I am!

Who thinks life couldn’t be more right?
We do, darlin’, we do!
