Sunparlour Players - If the Creeks Don't Rise lyrics

Artist: Sunparlour Players

album: Hymns For The Happy


Rise, rise and shine
Shoes on again it's time
You're working today
Gonna have to pitch in while it's light
If the creeks don't rise
I hope to see tomorrow alright
Watch my father's hand
Plant some seeds again
Hear my mother call the helpers in
If the creeks don't rise
We'll work 'til the light gets dim
And if the creeks don't rise
We'll work 'til the light gets dim
Boy helpers start to feel sick
Girl helpers
But they keep working hard
To send a little money back home
'Cause in Mexico
Is where their family seeds are sown
But now the sun parlour
Is where they call their home
Smell that water comin'
Across the field
I wanna get some
I wanna get in the way
Of that big ol'
Irrigation gun
Call all your friends
Tell their parents
They too can attend
Come on farmers
Come on trees
Feel that coolness
In the breeze
'Cause if the creeks don't rise
We're gonna have a time
And if the creeks don't rise
We're gonna have a
We're gonna have a time
Night is comin' in
And all the fields
They are emptying
We sit down to eat
And I wrestle my dad to the ground
With so much fun around
We can't even hear the sound
Rise, rise and shine
Shoes on again it's time
My brother and I hear a sound
That sounds like a roar
The creeks have risen
Risen like never before
The creeks have risen
Like they've done before
