Does anyone recognise it?

[haptalaon]

My love is for the earth and all that grows

I work the land for hours

Come rain or mist or when the wild wind blows

I tend the plants and flowers

Sometimes when I have finished work

The master's gardens call me

I'd rather be with soil and bark

Or in sweet natures company

Black John makes the garden grow

Lilt and blossom flowers

My man recorded it off the radio for me - it's a light female voice singing, and it sounds like modern folk - & it's driving me mad because I do recognise it.

I've ever heard/read that before, but I really like it!

That's quite lovely. I wonder who wrote / sang this?

[miscellanium]

when i tried searching for the first line of the lyrics, it brought me to this page: https://www.angelinemorrisonmusic.com/the-sorrow-songs-lyrics is this the right singer?

Searching lyrics brought me to to the same site as listed in the comment above, and she describes herself as "wyrd folk and psych folk" and now I'm going to need to look for her music....

[haptalaon]

Yes! Thank you - I couldn't find it on a lyrics search.

[miscellanium]

thank you too - this looks like a cool project and i wouldn't have found out about it if you hadn't asked about the lyrics! i'll have to look around her site more.
