Workin' Man |
| A working man in Indiana travelled from farm to farm |
| Plantin' seeds and talkin' weather, working 90 farms |
| Got to know the farmers knew all of their kids |
| Out in the country, that was '96 |
| His life was good and steady when seeds were cash |
| Next year the farmers were ready, the times were changing fast |
| Supreme Court in session made a new law |
| GMO seeds and patents had a fatal flaw |
| Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas formerly worked for Monsanto |
| Well I don’t know you but I do know who I am |
| One summer morning just around dawn |
| Four men with briefcases were on the working man’s lawn |
| We’re gonna to sue you, take you to court |
| For patent infringement, the criminals you support |
| We’re from Monsanto we own the seeds |
| Give us the names of those farmers you seek |
| You’re gonna need big money to stand your ground |
| Or we’re gonna bury you, how does that sound? |
| Working man lost all is his friends, his business too |
| Well I don’t know you but I do know who I am |
| Now times have changed, things are picking up |
| The wheels are rolling again on the old seed truck |
| The cleaner’s coming back have taken back the land |
| They don’t care the cost they’re gonna take a stand |
| Well I don’t know you but I do know who I am |
| Well I don’t know you but I do know who I am |
