The Lyrics
The fallen sheaves quick must be winnowed;
those fallen sheaves up will be rolled.
First, thanks we give for harvest blisses;
on sunburned pans, the tears were tolled.
But they’ve gone away, and we are strong—
entombed those tears; joy comes along.
Let us thresh it all before the starlings
get autumns sheaves we must haul.
Let us thresh away; in voices strong,
sing now of reaping all day long.
We can’t rest after the job is starting.
Get long hair sheaves in a caul.
Beat our chests no more, and bring that cart in.
Forgot’s our grief. So let’s haul!
those fallen sheaves up will be rolled.
First, thanks we give for harvest blisses;
on sunburned pans, the tears were tolled.
But they’ve gone away, and we are strong—
entombed those tears; joy comes along.
Let us thresh it all before the starlings
get autumns sheaves we must haul.
Let us thresh away; in voices strong,
sing now of reaping all day long.
We can’t rest after the job is starting.
Get long hair sheaves in a caul.
Beat our chests no more, and bring that cart in.
Forgot’s our grief. So let’s haul!

Three sets of 1's? Are there a whole bunch of city slickers here who hate farming?
