Song Of A Baker Lyrics
There's wheat in the field
And water in the stream
And salt in the mine
And an aching in me
I can no longer stand and wonder
'Cause I'm driven by this hunger
So I'll jug some water, bake some flour
Store some salt and wait the hour
While I'm thinking of love
Love is thinking for me
And the baker will come
And the baker I'll be
I am depending on my labour
The texture and the flavour
And water in the stream
And salt in the mine
And an aching in me
'Cause I'm driven by this hunger
So I'll jug some water, bake some flour
Store some salt and wait the hour
Love is thinking for me
And the baker will come
And the baker I'll be
The texture and the flavour

I needs ta know! Is this about a guy cookin' up some drugs? Is it about a woman? Or is it about bakin' a loaf of bread? I needs ta know!
No fool, it's about love. Metaphors, ever heard of it?

It is about the Soufi religion!
I'm thinking it's a song to remind us that, in case of world economic collapse, world war, whatever ... as long as there is wheat, water, yeast and salt we will survive.
@jcherry You can even do without the yeast if you're in a hurry.
