Letra

I've never been in a war
But I can make almost any broken thing work
Out west, I'll make myself a name
I'll make a fertile field out of any barren plain
Evelyn grew up around fine things
Enjoyed attending social parties
When she agreed to be my bride
She said she knew our life would be a rocky ride
Living in the ditch will take a toll on any man
If you could see what it's done to my Evelyn
The light has faded from her eyes
Still she swears she can't show up back east
Where in the grass, she left it
In Colorado, I began my trade
An engineer is welcome where there's a fortune to be made
Each day when I left for the mine
Poor Evelyn pulled the door latch back inside
With our first child on the way
The mine camp was too rough for us to stay
My reputation served me well
I signed on to build Idaho's first canal
Living in the ditch will take a toll on any man
But if you could see what it's done to my Evelyn
The light has faded from her eyes
Still she swears she can't show up back east
Where in the grass, she left it
With money from back east, we broke the ground
Hunched at my desk for weeks, my design was sound
Evelyn suffered the most
When the funds dried up, our dreams withered with our hopes
With no-one but our boy's company
Evelyn, she longed to rejoin society
But failure lingered like a haze
The west would hold us for all the rest of our days
Living in the ditch will take its toll on any man
If you could see what it's done to my Evelyn
The light has faded from her eyes
Still she swears she can't show up back east
Where in the grass, she left it
