Stories laying in the grass

Select language to translate this lyric

Laying in the grass all day, all he had to do was play
Until he grew old enough to say, “Father, put me to work
I truly want to know my worth, on this gracious, giving earth.”
I love to listen to all the stories my father told
His father taught him how to work, enjoy a life of love and worth
All the while sharing mirth, he said, “Father, you’ve given me wealth
As soon as I have a son as well, I’ll share with him the stories you’d tell
I love to listen to all the stories my father told
