Lyrics

Who'll buy my wheat, who'll buy my corn
To feed my babies when their born?
The seeds and dirt, a prayer for rain, that I can use

I work the land, I watched the sky
I talk to god and wonder why
But it's the only life I know, these farmer's blues

Chorus
I see the seasons come and go, sending rain, fire and snow
I'm at the mercy of it all, this life I choose
Sometimes I hang my head and cry, when
That evening train goes by
Wish it could take me far away, these farmer's blues

The tractor's broke, the fence is down
Put own my suit and go to town
And ask for a loan, that I know well, they might refuse

But back at home, still by my side
The one I love with worried eyes
Waits for me, to love away, these farmer's blues
