Lyrics

Farmer joe, i'm the meanest woman you know, woman you know, she said
Farmer joe, i'm the meanest woman you know, woman you know
I let you slide about an hour ago, now

Farmer boy, get your gun, run, run, run. farmer boy, get your gun, run, run, run, run, run, run
Farmer boy, get your gun, run, run, run
Farmer boy, get your gun and run, run, run like a son of a gun from love
Running from the mindreader, run baby, run

Got a date with the town shoe maker you know, baby you know
She said, I can't wait for your cornfields to grow, baby to grow
Whoa, baby, whoa baby, give my bags and let the good wind blow
Give my bags and let the good wind blow. give my bags and let the good wind blow
I've got to see about a man I know
Fire, flames of gold rush my mind. fire, flames of gold rush my mind
Sock it to the railroad, baby. baby, there's a train whistle coming
Baby, there's a train whistle coming

Once it was alright, alright, baby. once it was alright, alright, baby
Once it was alright, alright, no…
