    A bucket list item for me, getting this record pressed. 180 gram vinyl with a cool home-printed lyric sheet. NOT shrink-wrapped, because single use plastic is dumb. They'll ship in a clear slip cover like you'd find in the record store.

lyrics

Bring a shovel and sapling, bring a pail of water
Say a prayer for the future, keep that hope alive
Oatmeal in the morning, cornbread every night
Someday we’ll have apple cider, butter, sauce, and pie

The bills are due, the money’s tight but I think everything will be alright
Ain’t got much in the way of things but I got you and you got me

Green yellow and azure, big wide open sky
Walk this road a hundred miles to see my darling smile
Work my way through the afternoon hoeing corn and beans
The sun goes down, run on home, she’s waiting there for me

If that little tree dies, plant two more in its place
Try not to sweat the small stuff, keep a slow and steady pace
Got two on the ground and one on the way, the family’s getting bigger
There’s a lot to learn and a lot to love and life moves ever quicker
