Sugar Cane |
I don’t give a damn what those people say |
Cane smoke can’t be good for you day after day |
Every year at harvest time black smoke fills the sky |
Get the kids and bring 'em home and make 'em stay inside |
From Thibodaux to Raceland |
There’s a fire in the fields |
All the way up the bayou from LaFourche to Ibercville |
Dirty air dirty laundry dirty money dirty rain |
Dirty dark in the morning when they’re burning the sugar cane |
Christmas on the bayou |
Midnight come and gone |
Driving by the sugar mills |
All the lights are on |
Parking lot full of trucks |
Inside the furnace glows |
Everybody’s working overtime |
It’s a good job even though |
From Thibodaux to Raceland, there’s a fire in the fields |
All the way up the bayou from LaFourche to Ibercville |
Dirty air dirty laundry dirty money dirty rain |
Dirty dark in the morning when they’re burning the sugar cane |
First came the sugar cane then came Thibodaux |
King sugar built this town, cane paved these roads |
Burn the leaves, harvest fast |
That’s more for the company |
Nobody even thinks to ask |
Nobody even thinks to scream |
From Thibodaux to Raceland, there’s a fire in the fields |
All the way up the bayou from LaFourche to Ibercville |
Dirty air dirty laundry dirty money dirty rain |
Dirty dark in the morning when they’re burning the sugar cane |
Ashes are falling like a dark and deadly snow |
All the way up the bayou and to the gulf of Mexico |
Dirty air, dirty laundry, dirty money, dirty rain |
A dirty deal with the devil and they’re burning |
Burning, burning the sugar cane |
