Song of a Baker - Small Faces

There’s wheat in the field

And water in the stream

And salt in the mine

And an aching in me

I can longer stand and wonder

Cos I’m driven by this hunger

So I’ll jug some water, bake some flour

Store some salt and wait the hour

When thinking of love

Love is thinking for me

And the baker will come

And the baker I’ll be

I’m depending on my labour

The texture and the flavour

Hey!

I can no longer stand and wonder

Cos I’m driven by this hunger

So I’ll jug some water, bake some flour

Store some salt and wait the hour
