Dusty old Farmer out
working your Fields
Hanging down over
your Tractor Wheel
The Sun beatin' down
turns the red Paint
to orange
And rusty old
patches of Steel
There's no Farmer
Songs on that Car
Radio
Just Cowboys, Truck
Drivers and Pain
Well this is my Way
to say thanks for
the Meal
And I hope there's
no shortage of Rain
Straw hat and old
dirty Hankies
Moppin' your Face
like a Shoe
Thanks for the Meal
here's a Song that
is real
From me, from
Champion, to you
Straw hat and old
dirty Hankies
Moppin' a Face like
a Shoe
Thanks for the Meal
here's a Song that
is real
From me, from this
little Town, to you
The Combines gang
up, take most of the
Bread
Things just ain't
like they used to be
Though your Kids are
out after the
American Dream
And they're workin
in big Factories
If I come back, when
you're out in the
Sun
Can I wave at you
just like a Friend
These Days when
everyone's taking so
much
There's somebody
giving back in
Straw hat and old
dirty Hankies
Moppin' your Face
like a Shoe
Thanks for the Meal
here's a Song that
is real
From me, from this
little Town, to you
Straw hat and old
dirty Hankies
Moppin' your Face
like a Shoe
Thanks for the Meal
here's a Song that
is real
From me, from
Champion, to you
Mmmm mmm ...
