Corn in the fields
Listen to the rice when the wind blows cross the water
King harvest has surely come
I work for the union
cause she's so good to me
That's where she said I should be
I will hear every word the boss may say
For he's the one who hands me down my pay
Looks like this time I'm gonna get to stay
I'm a union man now all the way
The smell of the leaves
From the magnolia trees in the meadow
King harvest has surely come
Dry summer then comes fall
Which I depend on most of all
Hey rainmaker can't you hear the call
Long enough I've been up on skid row
And it's plain to see I've nothing to show
I'm glad to pay those union dues
Just don't judge me by my shoes
Scarecrow and a yellow moon
And pretty soon a carnival on the edge of town
King harvest has surely come
Last year this time wasn't no joke
My whole barn went up in smoke
My horse jethro well he went mad
And I can't ever remember things being that bad
Then there comes a man with a paper and a pen
Telling us our hard times are about to end
And then if they don't give us what we like
He said men that's when you gotta go on strike

Once I walked through the halls of a station
Someone called your name
In the street I heard children laughing
They all sound the same
Wonder, could y...
Get Up, Jake, it's late in the mornin'
The rain is pourin' and we got work to do
Get Up, Jake, there's no need a-lyin'
You tell me that you're dyin', ...
Stranded out in the night
Eliza took me down
To see the widow give
Rain to the town
It's against the law
To be a tonic man,
But the widow knows

Now when the rumor comes to your town
It grows, it grows, where it started no one knows
Some of your neighbors will invite it right in
Maybe it's a li...
Place this call, it’s not for fun
Please, place this call, you know it’s not for fun
I gotta get a message to my baby
You know, she’s not just anyone

We can talk about it now
It's that same old riddle
Only starting from the middle
I'd fix it but I don't know how
Well, we could try to reason
But you ...

Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights
There were few at the scene, but the...
