When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a farm, and I did what I could
And I called my farm, "the muscle in my arm"
But the land was sweet and good, and I did what I could.
When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man
So I got myself a shack, and I did what I could
And I called my shack, "Break my back"
And I called my farm, "Muscle in my arm"
But the land was sweet and good, and I did what I could.
similarly:
cow - "no milk now"
duck - "out of luck"
hen - "now and then"
horse - "lame of course"
wife - "run for your life"
son - "my work's done"
