The Farmer’s Wife (kneading bread).

I’m glad I am a farmer’s wife,

The wheaten bread to knead,

And when the men come home from work

Their hungry mouths to feed.

I keep my house in perfect trim,

I sweep and dust and bake,

And when the busy day is done,

Sweet is the rest I take.—Chorus.

The Farmer’s Girl (with broom and milk pail)
