As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grainI take a
look at my wife and realize shes very plainBut thats just
perfect for an Ahmish like meYou know I shun fancy things like
electricityAt 4:30 in the morinin Im milkin cowsJebadiah feeds
the chickens and Jacob plows, foolAnd Ive been milkin and plowin
so long that even Ezekiel thinksthat my mind is goneIm a man of
the land I'm into disiplineGot a bible in my hand and a
beard on my chinBut if I finish all of my chores, and you finish
thineThen tonight were gunna party like its 1699We been spendin
most our lives livin in an Ahmish paradiseI churn butter once or
twice livin in an Ahmish paradiseIts hard work and sacrafice
livin in an Ahmish paradiseWe sell quilts at discount price
