[The Band - King Harvest lyrics]
Corn in the fields
Listen to the rice when the
Wind blows 'cross the water f a fm abc
King harvest has surely come
Am g bb f g c i work for the union 'cause
She's so good to me am f
And I'm bound to come out on top dm e
That's where I should be am bb c g
I will hear ev'ry word the boss may say
Am bb c g
For he's the one who hands me down my pay
Am bb c g
Looks like this time I'm gonna get to stay
Am bb c g am g bb f
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 my call?
Please let these crops grow tall
Long enough I've been up on skid row
And it's plain to see, I've nothin 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 remember things bein' so bad
Then there comes a man with a paper and a pen
Tellin' 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"
Corn in the fields
Listen to the rice when the
Wind blows 'cross the water
King harvest has surely come
Listen to the rice when the
Wind blows 'cross the water f a fm abc
King harvest has surely come
Am g bb f g c i work for the union 'cause
She's so good to me am f
And I'm bound to come out on top dm e
That's where I should be am bb c g
I will hear ev'ry word the boss may say
Am bb c g
For he's the one who hands me down my pay
Am bb c g
Looks like this time I'm gonna get to stay
Am bb c g am g bb f
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 my call?
Please let these crops grow tall
Long enough I've been up on skid row
And it's plain to see, I've nothin to show
