Letra

My grandfather was a sailor, he blew in off the water
My father was a farmer and I his only daughter
Took up with a no-good millworking man from Massachusetts
Who dies from too much whiskey and leaves me these three faces to feed
Millwork ain't easy, millwork ain't hard
Millwork, it ain't nothing but an awful boring job
I'm waiting on a daydream to take me through the morning
Put me in my coffee break where I can have a sandwich and remember
And then it's me and my machine for the rest of the morning
For the rest of the afternoon, oh, for the rest of my life
My mind begins to wander to the days back on the farm
I can see my father smiling at me swinging on his arm
I can hear my granddad's stories
About the storms out on Lake Erie
Where the vessels and cargos
And fortunes and sailors' lives were lost
But it's my life's been wasted, and I have been the fool
To let this manufacturer use my body for a tool
I can ride home in the evening
Staring at my hands
Swearing by my sorrow
That a young girl ought to stand a better chance
May I work the mills
Just as long as I am able
And never meet the man
Whose name is on the label
It'd be me and my machine for the rest of the morning
For the rest of the afternoon, oh, for the rest of my life
