Soil is rich and there are fish in the river
Corn is growing high
With my wife and my children I came here
On the other side of the continent
A few centuries ago
A Johnny's ship unfurls the sails
Upon the golden shore
Autumn harvest will provide for the winter
Food is stacked up in the shed
With snow on its way, we give thanks to the Lord
Freeze away from the north
Ice and snow but we know
We have a fire to keep us warm and get us by
Until the spring comes to melt the snow
Saffron Robe and Redskin Natives
Living side by side
The wind that brought their views
Spread the seeds far and wide across the land
Soil is rich and there are fish in the river
Corn is growing high
With my wife and my children I came here
