Marty Stuart, His Fabulous Superlatives - Farmer's Blues lyrics
[Marty Stuart, His Fabulous Superlatives - Farmer's Blues lyrics]
To feed my babies when they're born
Seeds and dirt, a prayer for rain
That I can use
I work the land, I watch the sky
I talk to God and wonder why
But it's the only life I’ve known
These farmer's blues
I see the seasons come and go
Sendin' 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 evenin' train goes by
Wish it could take me far away
These farmer's blues
The tractor's old, the fence is down
Put on my suit and go to town
Ask for a loan, that I know well
They might refuse
Back at home, still by my side
The one I love, with worried eyes
Wait's for me, to love away
These farmer's blues
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
As that evenin’ train goes by
Wish it could take me far away
These farmer's blues
