Bob Miller – Farm Relief Blues

Bob Miller – Farm Relief Blues Lyrics

Artist: Bob Miller
Song: Farm Relief Blues

We’re breakin’ our backs with a carload of tax
How much longer must we wait?
Seems them as has gets while we work and sweat
How much longer must we wait?

Every politician, yes, every politician
Promised to bring relief here
Maybe they’ll bring relief, maybe they’ll bring relief
But they forgot to say what year

I’ve got those Farm Relief Blues
Those hungry farm relief blues;
Those sugar coated, ballot coaxin’, campaign lyin’
Low down farm relief blues

We’ve waited for years, been starvin’ for years
Waitin’ for the said relief
Before election time we were promised lots of things
All we got was lots of grief

Why, I had the itch, the seven year itch
I scratched my way out in five
I’ve been scratchin’ for food but it don’t do any good
Don’t know what’s keepin’ me alive

I’ve got those Farm Relief Blues
Those hungry farm relief blues;
Those sugar coated, ballot coaxin’, campaign lyin’
Low down farm relief blues

A lot we don’t know, we’ll never, never know
Much about the laws of the land
But from the north and east and from the south and west
Misery we understand

There’re things we don’t know, there’s lots we’ll never know
About the laws of the land
Why there’s always new laws and we can’t find the cause
But misery we understand

I’ve got those Farm Relief Blues
Those hungry farm relief blues;
Those sugar coated, ballot coaxin’, campaign lyin’
Low down farm relief blues
