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 |
