Taxes on the Farmer Feed Them All
农夫的税收养活了他们

If you'll only look and see I know you will agree
只要你肯看一看,我知道你会同意的
That the taxes on the farmer feeds us all
农夫的税收养活了我们所有人
The farmer is the man, the farmer is the man
农夫是爷们,农夫是汉子
He buys on a credit until fall
秋收前他只能靠赊帐买东西
Then they take him by the hand
到时候,商人们就抓着他的手
And they lead him from the land
把他从庄稼地里拉出来让还钱
And the merchant he's the man who gets it all
而商人是得到一切的人
While the woman uses snuff, and they never get enough
当女人吸气鼻烟时,她们总是吸不够
But the farmer is the man that feeds them all
可农夫得养活她们所有人
While the farmer's black and dirty
而农夫又黑又脏
But he works like a turkey
可一干起活来就像只火鸡
Got good clothes a-hanging in the hall
把好衣服挂在屋舍
If you'll only look and see I'm sure you will agree
只要你肯看一看,我知道你会同意的

While the judge is on the bench

And the lawyer I'll declare

Will tell a lie and swear
