I want to thank everybody again for coming to farming.
Let's not forget, it's the farmer who feeds us all,
that gives us the opportunity to become who we are,
and who we want to be, and live the lives that we want to live.
We shouldn't take it for granted,
because people are making fucking money off of it,
and they're not doing it right.
So, listen, thank you guys for your support.
A black
[G]
man with a black hat
Living in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate running through his front yard
[C] And he thinks God is, God is so [G] good
Oh, there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleaning up the evening slot
And he looks at her and says,
Hey, darling, I remember when you could
[G] Stop the clock
Oh, ain't that [C] America, you [G] and me
Ain't that [C] America, the shot [G] down the sea, baby
Ain't that [C] America, home and [D] free, yeah
Little pink houses [C] for you and me
[G]
[C] [G]
[C]
[G]
There's a young man in a t-shirt
Lifts to a rock and rollin' station
He's got a greasy head and a greasy smile
[C] Says, Lord, this must be my [G] destination
The cops told me when I was younger
They said, boy, you're gonna be president
Just [C] like everything else
Those old crazy dreams kinda [G] gave a wham
Oh, but ain't that [C] America, you [G] and me
Ain't [C] that America, the shot [G] down the sea, baby
Ain't [C] that America, home [D] and free, yeah
Little pink [D] houses [C] for you and me

[C] [A]
[G] It's hard to be a hero
Well, there's people and more people
What do they know, know, know
Go to work and somehow rise
And they gash [C] down at the golf course
And there's winners and there's losers
But that ain't no big deal
[C] Cause the [F] simple man, baby, he's for the thrills
And the bills, [G] and the bills, that kill us
Oh, but ain't [C] that America, you [G] and me
Ain't [C] that America, the shot [G] down the sea, baby
Ain't [C] that America, home [A] and [D] free, yeah
Little [D] pink houses [C] for you and me
[G] Let's do it together, one power
Oh, ain't that [C] America, you [G] and me
Ain't [C] that America, the shot [G] down the sea, baby
Ain't [C] that America, home and [D] free, yeah
Little pink houses [C] for you and me
Oh, [G] thank [C] you very much, you [G] guys
I hope you had a good time tonight with Farming
