《Taxes on the Farmer Feeds Us All》歌词

[00:00:00] Taxes On The Farmer Feeds Us All - Ry Cooder

[00:00:26] We worked through Spring and Winter

[00:00:30] Through Summer and through Fall

[00:00:33] But the mortgage worked the hardest

[00:00:36] And the steadiest of us all

[00:00:39] It worked on nights and Sundays

[00:00:42] It worked each holiday

[00:00:45] Settled down among us

[00:00:48] And it never went away

[00:00:52] The farmer comes to town

[00:00:54] With his wagon broken down

[00:00:58] The farmer is the man who feeds us all

[00:01:04] If you only look and see

[00:01:07] I know you will agree

[00:01:10] That the farmer is the man who feeds us all

[00:01:17] The farmer is the man

[00:01:19] The farmer is the man

[00:01:22] He buys on his credit until Fall

[00:01:29] Then they take him by the hand

[00:01:31] And they lead him from his land

[00:01:34] And the merchant is the man who gets it all

[00:02:29] The farmer is the man

[00:02:31] The farmer is the man

[00:02:35] He lives on his credit until Fall

[00:02:41] With the interest rates so high

[00:02:44] It's a wonder he don't die

[00:02:46] But the taxes on the farmer feeds us all

[00:03:00] Well the banker says he's broke

[00:03:03] And the merchant stops and smoke

[00:03:06] But they forget that it's the farmer

[00:03:09] That feeds them all

[00:03:12] It would put them to the test

[00:03:15] If the farmer took a rest

[00:03:18] And they'd know that it's the farmer

[00:03:21] That feeds them all

[00:03:24] The farmer is the man

[00:03:27] The farmer is the man

[00:03:30] Lives on his credit until Fall

[00:03:36] Well his pants are wearing thin

[00:03:39] His condition it's a sin

[00:03:42] 'Cause the taxes on the farmer feeds us all
