Support your Local Farmers
From “can’t see to can’t see”
The farmer’s day is never done
Tax his land, tax his crops
Tax him ‘til his farm can’t run
Up before dawn, out in the fields
Checking for that killing frost
Praying that the crops will yield
Some small profit after all the costs
The farmer and his helping hands
Who work for less than half our pay
Feed all of us and feed us well
So we can work through our “important” day
Now we tax water from his well
Now we tax his tools
His loans are hurting, you can tell
But we tax his tractors, tax his mules
Support your farmers, buy local food
Organic is the way to go
If you don’t support our farmers, friends,
They may not be here tomorrow
