When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man
So I dealt myself a shack, I did what I could
And he called his shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good and I did what I could
When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a cow, I did what I could
And he called his cow, "No milk now"
And he called his shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good and I did what I could
When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a duck, I did what I could
And he called his duck, "Out of luck"
Called his cow, "no milk now"
Called his shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good and I did what I could
When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a wife, I did what I could
And he called his wife, "Run for your life"
Called his duck, "Out of luck"
Called his cow, "No milk now"
Called his shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good and I did what I could
When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man
So I got myself a son, I did what I could
And he called his son, "My work's done"
But the land was sweet and good and I did what I could
