| If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree
|
| That the farmer is the man that feeds 'em all
|
| While the woman uses snuff, and they never get enough
|
| But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| When the farmer come to town with his wagon broken down
|
| The farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| Farmer is the man, farmer is the man
|
| Buys on a credit until fall
|
| Then they’ll take him by the hand
|
| Then they’ll lead him through the land
|
| Then the merchant he’s the man who gets it all
|
| If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree
|
| That the farmer is the man that feeds 'em all
|
| While the judge is on his bench
|
| He will scratch his head and wink
|
| But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| And the lawyer I’ll declare
|
| Will tell a lie and swear
|
| But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree
|
| That the farmer is the man that feeds 'em all
|
| Farmer is the man, farmer is the man
|
| Buys on a credit until fall
|
| Then they’ll take him by the hand
|
| Then they’ll lead him through the land
|
| Then the merchant he’s the man that gets it all
|
| Oh the doctor hangs around
|
| While the blacksmith works his iron
|
| But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| And the preacher and the cook
|
| They’ll go strolling on the brook
|
| But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
|
| If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree
|
| That the farmer is the man that feeds 'em all
|
| Farmer is the man, farmer is the man
|
| Buys on a credit until fall
|
| Then they’ll take him by the hand
|
| Then they’ll lead him through the land
|
| Then the merchant he’s the man that gets it all |
