She wore the wine colored dress with the collar ruched high With the basque knife pleating on the skirt on the side It wasn't a new dress, just the best one she had Anna stood in in the field where she'd soon marry Fred They were witnessed by royalty, an old Ioway Chief With Two braves and two girls and a guy with no teeth And families and singles from townships around It was wonderfully simple, it was simply profound Will you keep my heart, for the rest of my life When the world treats us hard, or our load becomes light With friends like we have, and the Lord up above Our days won't be easy, but we'll always have love From Eldora they left for a small house and farm A half mile from Hubbard on the north edge of town On a spring seated buggy hauling all that was theirs A bed and a washstand, a table and chairs They started with little, so light was their load Just three hens and a rooster, from the folks down the road And a horse bought by Fred just few weeks before And three cows from her mother, though she wished she had more Will you keep my heart, for the rest of my life When the world treats us hard, or our load becomes light With friends like we have, and the Lord up above Our days won't be easy, but we'll always have love Anna's mother was widowed and lost her leg to disease But she was always as cheerful as a cool summer breeze The Chief loved her dearly and watched over the farm From protect her strangers who might do her harm So strong was his love that he ask her to wed "I am honored you ask," were the words that she said "It pains me to tell you that I must say no" She never explained, so we'll never will know Will you keep my heart, for the rest of my life When the world treats us hard, or our load becomes light With friends like we have, and the Lord up above Our days won't be easy, but we'll always have love
