It was about the life of a farmers wife and how she had to just as much of not more than the farmer. i am fairly sure the chorus contained the lines I can cook , I can clean, I can sew, I can glean Thanks for any help Alison |

As a hostess I am a real charmer; But jolly girls all, Pay heed to my call: God help you if you marry a farmer. |
