The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're outstanding in your field and that's where you ought to be
Outstanding in your field in quick sand to your knees
You know he loves me true but you must try him one more time
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
In the field of stealing love you're public enemy one to three
The next two lips on your list are kissed by only me
Love grows greener round my field and you're the jealous kind
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
You’ve seen his arms around me across a fence from you
Now you're after my green pasture and there's nothing you won’t do
But I think he sees you coming and I can tell you're trying
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
