Nancy was a farmer's daughter everything her Daddy taught her honestly,
honestly
And even though her Pa was poor he always kept within the law and so did she,
so did she
Because there's no shame in workin' in the rain
He's using every day to shape his daughter's character
For someone's son to marry her
On the day her Momma died he promised to protect the pride of family,
family
And as he left the hospital he vowed if it was possible they'd both be free,
both be free
Because there's no shame in workin' in the rain
He's using every day to shape his daughter's character
For someone's son to marry her
Then came to court her, Clancy Clearwater
Rich gifts he bought her from them big stores
And her old man fancied that she'd wed Clancy
A dude ranch owner from Arizona
A real fine dancer, slicked up romancer
He got this answer from his fair Nancy
No no no, I won't go, No no no, I won't go
No no no, I won't go, No no no, I won't go
Clancy came complaining to the farmer did his brain in, couldn't understand,
understand
Rich and pretty looking she'd not even do the cooking if she gave her hand,
gave her hand
Because there's no shame in workin' in the rain
He's using every day to shape his daughter's character
For someone's son to marry her
She'd be wearing Satin, reading literature in Latin, life'd not be hard,
not be hard
Seems that were the trouble she preferred to tend the stubble in her own backyard,
own backyard
Because there's no shame in workin' in the rain
He's using every day to shape his daughter's character
For someone's son to marry her
