Too Wet to Plow

[Verse 1]
We've got a hundred acres with a house in the middle
Worked in the fields 'till the sun lays down
Sometimes the Lord lets us rest just a little
Can't sow seeds when there's water on the ground

[Chorus]
Come on boys, get down them fiddles
Can't make cane with the rain comin' down
Mama's got cakes and eggs on the griddle
Put away the mule, boys, it's too wet to plow

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, rain's comin' down
Ooh, too wet to plow

[Verse 2]
Just up the road, there's a gal named Trudy
Plays that banjo, clawhammer style
She fell in love with my uncle Rudy
He picks his guitar and it drives her wild

[Chorus]
Come on boys, get down them fiddles
Can't make cane with the rain comin' down
Mama's got cakes and eggs on the griddle
Put away the mule, boys, it's too wet to plow

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, rain's comin' down
Ooh, too wet to plow

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Old Sam Stone lives high on a mountain
Got six kids and a dame travelin' 'round
I'mma gonna have us a pickin' and a shoutin'
Ain't missin' nothin' if we don't go to town

[Chorus]
Come on boys, get down them fiddles
Can't make cane with the rain comin' down
Mama's got cakes and eggs on the griddle
Put away the mule, boys, it's too wet to plow

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, rain's comin' down
Ooh, too wet to plow
Ooh
