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
