Lyrics
Momma won't you buy me a milkin cow Crops dried up and the horse won't plow Gotta find a way to make a livin some how Or I'm gonna lose this farm Moonshine's down to the very last drop There's an axe by the shed and some wood to chop I'm wore to the bone but I just can't stop I gotta work around this farm [chorus There's more work to do than I can get done Neck's burned red by the noon day sun Think I'm gonna call up my friend Joel and take a bucket full of worms to the fishing hole A man can't work his whole life away So I'm going fishing today [end chorus] The tax man's comin in a day or two I got a pain in my back and a hole in my shoe I got a little bit of time and a lot to do If I'm gonna save this farm So shovel them taters and pick them beans Boil a little water for the collard greens Put the fan in the window by the back door screen I'll be working out on the farm Chorus The dogs are out barking at the old jack mule Kids think the pond is a swimming pool Tractor hadn't run for a year or two I'm dyin on this farm There's bills to pay and mouths to feed Rows to hoe and plants to seed Working my fingers till they bleed But I'm gonna save this farm Chorus
