I Have Made a Place

I don't have much at all
 But I have sheep
 I have nothing like a fortune
 But I can sleep
 All of the widows in town
 Have given me their key
 They count on no judgement
 Only hard love from me
 Those who want to
 They call my name and
 Recognise my face
 I don't know why
 I was born but
 I have made a place
 I built my own house
 And have no gate
 I go to bed so early
 And sleep so late
 When I die there will be a hole
 No other man can cover
 I have made a place here
 I am my Own lover
 Those who want to
 They call my name and
 Recognise my face
 I don't know why
 I was born but
 I have made a place
 I have many friends
 And children call me master
 I help older folks build fires
 To warm their homes up faster
 I don't know why
 I was born, but
 I have made a place
