What A Day

What a day it was
back when we were young.
Trying to make a living,
every day in the Sun.

Do you remember when
we made a dollar a day?
My first job was pulling
weeds, $.10 an hour.

A year later working on
a stationery hay baler,
I made up to $35. a day,
if we were baling Alfalfa.

Good memories of long
ago times, when you worked
hard for one thin dime.
Tell me your story, please.
