Текст песни Taxes on the Farmer Feeds Us All (The New Lost City Ramblers) с переводом

If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree

That the taxes on the farmer feeds us all

The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man

He buys on a credit until fall

Then they take him by the hand

And they lead him from the land

And the merchant he’s the man who gets it all

While the woman uses snuff, and they never get enough

But the farmer is the man that feeds them all

While the farmer’s black and dirty

But he works like a turkey

Got good clothes a-hanging in the hall

If you’ll only look and see I’m sure you will agree

That the taxes on the farmer feeds us all

The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man

He buys on a credit until fall

Then they take him by the hand

And they lead him through the land

And the merchant is the man that gets it all

While the judge is on the bench

He will scratch his head and wink

But the farmer is the man that feeds them all

But the lawyer I’ll declare

Will tell a lie and swear

But the farmer is the man that feeds them all

The farmer is the man, farmer is the man

He buys on a credit until fall

Then they take him by the hand

And they lead him through the land

And the merchant he’s the man who gets it all

If you’ll only look and see I know you will agree

That the taxes on the farmer feeds them all

While the doctor hangs around

And the blacksmith works his iron

But the farmer is the man that feeds them all

And the preacher and the cook

They’ll go fishing 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 taxes on the farmer feeds us all

The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man

He buys on a credit until fall

Then they take him by the hand

And they lead him through the land

And the merchant is the man who gets it all
