Corn in the fields Listen to the rice when the wind blows 'cross the water King harvest has surely comeI work for the union 'Cause she's so good to me And I'm bound to come out on top That's where she said I should beI will hear every word the boss may say For he's the one who hands me down my pay Looks like this time I'm gonna get to stay I'm a union man, now all the wayThe smell of the leaves From the magnolia trees in the meadow King harvest has surely comeDry summer, then comes fall Which I depend on most of all Hey, rainmaker can't you hear my call? Please let these crops grow tallLong enough I've been up on skid row And it's plain to see, I've nothin' to show I'm glad to pay those union dues Just don't judge me by my shoesScarecrow and a yellow moon And pretty soon a carnival on the edge of town King harvest has surely comeLast year this time, wasn't no joke My whole barn went up in smoke My horse Jethro, well he went mad And I can't ever remember things bein' so badThen there comes a man with a paper and a pen Tellin' us our hard times are about to end And then if they don't give us what we like He said, "Men, that's 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
Это интересно:The Band на протяжении шести лет (с 1968 по 1975) были одной из наиболее популярных и влиятельных рок-групп, чья музыка рассматривалась столь же серьезно, как творения "Rolling stones" и "Beatles". А началось все в 1958-м, когда рок-н-ролльщик из Арканзаса Ронни Хокинс стал набирать себе сопровождающий состав. Одним из первых его соратников стал барабанщик Левон Хелм (р. 26 мая 1942). "Ronnie Hawkins & the Hawks"... продолжение
