There’s wheat in the field
G D A C G
And water in the stream
D A C
And salt in the mine
G D A C G
And an aching in me.
D A G D
I can longer stand and wonder
D A G D
Cos I’m driven by this hunger.

So I’ll jug some water, bake some flour,
D A C G
Store some salt and wait the hour.

The texture and the flavour
