Heaven's brew

Could I be your day when you arise and light the fields
And warm our children's backs and prepare our daily meals
I know you are a good wife, so sweet and good and true

A lengthy trail I shall walk to prove my love to you
See, I've been out a'hunting for a lady I can keep
Who keeps my trust and honors me and listens while I speak

If I should grow so old, my legs won't let me walk
My lungs get filled with demons and I cough instead of talk
Could you be my translation and tell my sons I love them true
Tell them father's gone away to drink the heavens brew
