Let the wealthy and the great
Roll in splendor and state
I envy them not, I declare it
I envy them not, I declare it

I raise my own lamb
My own chickens and ham
Shear my own fleece and I wear it
I have lawns, I have bowers
I have fruits, I have flowers

Chorus
The lark is my early alarmer
So Jolly boys now
Here's God speed the plough
Long life and success to the farmer

I was brought up in the city
But it wasn't very pretty
So I went out to find a way to forget it
I went out to find a way to forget it

I heard the grass was greener
I'm going to life much cleaner
I can have the whole room in the country
I'd be early to bed, early to rise
Make me healthy, strong, and wise

Chorus
The lark is my early alarmer
So Jolly boys now
Here's God speed the plough
Long life and success to the farmer
