The soybean and the cotton
and the golden grain
you and me rolling through
a driving rain
from Little Rock to Joplin
the story is the same
it's hard to give a damn
the river here is poison now
or so the papers say
we had a riot break out
at the veterans day parade
everybody's looking
for some one new that
they can blame
makes it hard to give a damn
stands the cotton
just as far as you can see
smells from the south
up on a summer breeze
there's no one here
it's just the companies
it makes it hard to give a damn
there ain't no place no more
for the independent man
it just takes one bad season
then they'll do you
cause they can
but daddy ain't been
worth to much
since he got back from Vietnam
makes it's hard to give a damn
stands the cotton
just as far as you can see
smells from the south
up on a summer breeze
there's no one here
it's just the companies
it makes it hard to give a damn
