Band King Harvest (Has Surely Come) lyrics
Songwriters: Robertson, Robbie
Corn in the fields.
Listen to the rice when the wind blows cross the water,
King harvest has surely come.
I work for the union cause shes so good to me;
And Im bound to come out on top,
Thats where I should be.
I will hear evry word the boss may say,
For hes the one who hands me down my pay.
Looks like this time Im gonna get to stay,
Im 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, cant you hear my call?
Please let these crops grow tall.
Long enough Ive been up on skid row
And its plain to see, Ive nothin to show.
Im glad to pay those union dues,
Just dont 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, wasnt no joke,
My whole barn went up in smoke.
My horse jethro, well he went mad
And I cant 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 dont give us what we like
He said, men, thats 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.
