Lyrics

Ramón, he drives a four wheeled cart, His plow cracks the hardened sod, A fourth of which he grows for God In a land that Gods forgotten, In a land that Gods forgotten. Serene, they say she bore his child Like some creature running wild, Because old Ramón had been beguiled By someone much younger and fairer then she, By someone much younger and fairer then she. Ramón they say he took his life, And killed both the older and the younger wife, Because in the midst of earthly strife, His stars had turned against him. His stars had turned against him Ramón, he drives a four wheeled cart, His plow it cracks the hardened sod, A fourth of which he grows for God In a land that Gods forgotten, A land that Gods forgotten.
