Wondrous Land
{loadposition WondrousLand}
1. When I first came to this wondrous land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a shack, And I called it Break’n My Back.
So I called my shack Break’n My Back,
But the land was sweet and good,
And I did what I could.
2. When I first came to this wondrous land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a cow, And I called her No Milk Now
So I called my shack Break’n my Back,
But the land was sweet and good
And I did what I could.
3. … Got myself a duck and I called her Out of Luck
4. … Got myself a pig and I called her Doing a Jig
5. … Got myself a wife and I called her Love of My Life
6. … Got myself a son and I called him My Work’s Done
