Corn in the fields

Listen to the rice when the wind blows 'cross the water

King Harvest has surely come

Am G Bb F C
I work for the union 'cause she's so good to me
Am F F/E-Dm E7
And I'm bound to come out on top that's where I should be
Pre-chorus
Am Bb C |F G|
I will hear ev'ry word the boss may say
Am Bb C |F G|
For he's the one who hands me down my pay
Am Bb C |F G|
Looks like this time I'm gonna get to stay
Am Bb C Am-G-Bb-F
I'm a union man, now, all the way

The smell of the leaves

From the magnolia trees in the meadow

Dry summer, then come fall

Which I depend on most of all

Hey, rainmaker, can you hear the call?

Please let these crops grow tall

Am Bb C |F G|
Long enough I've been up on Skid Row
Am Bb C |F G|
And it's plain to see, I've nothin to show
Am Bb C |F G|
I'm glad to pay those union dues
Am Bb C Am-G-Bb-F
Just don't judge me by my shoes
Chorus 3

Scarecrow and a yellow moon
G# Eb5 D5 C5
And pretty soon a carnival on the edge of town

King Harvest has surely come
Verse 3
Am G
Last year, this time, wasn't no joke

My whole barn went up in smoke
Am F F/E
My horse Jethro, well he went mad
Dm E7
And I can't ever remember things being that bad
Pre-chorus 3
Am Bb C |F G|
Then here comes a man with a paper and a pen
Am Bb C |F G|
Tellin' us our hard times are about to end
Am Bb C |F G|
And then, if they don't give us what we like
Am Bb C Am-G-Bb-F
He said, "Men, that's when you gotta go on strike"
