Lover tell me if you can't
Whose gonna buy the wedding band?
With times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
Lover when I sing my song
All the rivers sing along
And they're gonna break their banks for me
To lay their gold around my feet
all the fashion in the pan
all the fashion on your hand
The rivers gonna give us a wedding band
Lover tell me if you're able
Whose gonna lay the wedding table?
With times being what they are
Dark and getting darker all the time
Lover when I sing my song
All the trees are gonna sing along
And bend their branches down to me
To lay their fruit around my feet
The almond and the apple
And the Sugar from the maple
Trees are gonna lay the wedding table
Lover tell me when we'll wed
Whose gonna make the wedding bed?
With times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
Lover when I sing my song
All the birds are gonna sing along
And they'll come flying 'round to me
To lay their feathers at my feet
And we'll lie down at night on a
Down pillow beneath our heads
The birds are gonna make the wedding bed
And the trees are gonna lay the wedding table
And the rivers gonna give us the wedding band
