Harvest Blues

The man on the field is worried
he's quickly losing time
he's got two more weeks of harvesting
and the money is near gone
well he's also losing patience
in his dwelling family
we may take it all one step at a time
but we won't take for free

He's a stranger to his freedom
the field it ties him down
though he's always facing it
he's learned to love the ground
he can not tell the future
yet his restless destiny awaits
he lives to watch his hopes and dreams
surrendering to fate

(Chorus)
Father sweats so not to dress me in hand me downs
Father sweats so not to keep us heading welfare bound

As soon as the harvest is over
the wintertime will subdue
it will be time for him to him the road
to see what he can do
but can not stand still for too long
there's others down the line
and man we'd have those harvest blues
if nothing sold this time

(chorus)

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
