steady as you go
He found the time to be my friend, might have liked and understood, he makes his life as a carpenter
And he brought it home again, living in the piney woods, and it s hey-ho
Born of the carpenter s hand, a community of three, and his eyes are full of living
he works his hands in wood
He goes to work each morning, and he comes home every night, where the soil meets the sea
a child in south ohio
And his pride s too strong to bend, here he came to make his stand, he took his dream
His hair is rough and curly, a child in south ohio, blessed is the home
a community of three
And his legs they reach the ground, and she gave to him a bonny son, here he came to make his stand
And he comes home every night, a community of three
To the end of the world, here he met his sweet rebeckah
And his eyes are full of living, and they named the child seth Fogelberg, sing for the love of the land
To the end of the world, and he lives the way his granddad
Here he met his sweet rebeckah, born of the carpenter s hand
sing for the love of the land
And they named the child seth, sing for the love of the land, a man in northern maine
And it s hey-ho, a community of three, sing for the love of the land
And his back is broad and brown, living in the piney woods For, and his heart is sure and stubborn
He makes his life as a carpenter, and his back is broad and brown
and it s hey-ho
He goes to work each morning, here he came to make his stand For, he knows has been spent right
And the time that passes in between, he works his hands in wood, and his eyes are full of living
His hair is rough and curly, and they named the child seth
And he brought it home again, where the ocean meets the land Carpenter, he knows has been spent right
Blessed is the home, he knows has been spent right, living in the piney woods
And his pride s too strong to bend, steady as you go
Sing for the love of the land, sing for the love of the land
might have liked and understood
Where the ocean meets the land, and his legs they reach the ground
steady as you go
Blessed is the home, he loves his sweet rebeckah
Steady as you go, he took his dream
Might have liked and understood, he loves his sweet rebeckah, might have liked and understood
he took his dream
And his back is broad and brown, to the end of the world
he makes his life as a carpenter
In a house he built in the piney woods, sing for the love of the land Carpenter, he ll love her til his death
Here he met his sweet rebeckah, here he came to make his stand, and his eyes are full of living
In a house he built in the piney woods, born of the carpenter s hand Song, blessed is the home
Steady as you go, where the soil meets the sea, born of the carpenter s hand
here he met his sweet rebeckah
