Ry Cooder - Taxes On The Farmer Feeds Us All lyrics

Your rating:


(Traditional, adapted by Ry Cooder) 

(D) - (A) - (E) 



(A) We worked through Spring and Winter, through (D) Summer and through (A) Fall 

But the mortgage worked the hardest and the (E) steadiest of us all 

It (A) worked on nights and Sundays, it (D) worked each holiday 

(E) Settled down among us and it never went (A) away 



The farmer comes to town with his wagon broken down 

The farmer is the man who feeds us all 

If you only look and see I know you will agree 

That the farmer is the man who feeds us all 



(A) The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man 

He buys on his credit until (E) Fall 

Then they (A) take him by the hand 

And they (D) lead him from his land 

And the (E) merchant is the man who gets it (A) all 



The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man 

He lives on his credit until Fall 

With the interest rates so high 

It's a wonder he don't die 

But the taxes on the farmer feeds us all 



Well, the banker says he's broke and the merchant stops and smoke 

But they forget that it's the farmer that feeds them all 

It would put them to the test if the farmer took a rest 

And they'd know that it's the farmer that feeds them all 



The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man 

Lives on his credit until Fall 

Well, his pants are wearing thin 

His condition, it's a sin 

'Cause the taxes on the farmer feeds us all
