Rice farmers

[Verse 1]

I'm out here growin' rice, yeah that's what I do

Had a cold damn winter but I made it through

Spring's finally here, well alright then

Gonna raise them stalks up once again

First thing's first, soak them seeds down right

Last summer's heat put 'em out like a light

Cold water's gonna wake them suckers up

Once you start this thing, you can't give up

[Verse 2]

I'm out here growin' vegetables too

Had a cold damn winter but I pulled on through

Spring's finally here, well alright then

Gonna push them shoots up once again

Organic farming? Man you can kiss my ass

Press them seeds down hard into the grass

A little sufferin' never hurt nobody

Once you start this thing, ain't no turning back

[Verse 3]

I got myself a family, yeah that's right

Had a cold damn winter but I saw the light

Spring's finally here, well alright then

Gonna fall in love all over again

Farm work's kept this old body strong

Old men givin' up? Boy that's just wrong

Maybe the seeds ain't what they used to be

But change the field and well, you never know

If something comes of it, I'll own it though

Once you start this thing, ain't no turning back

Ha, ha, ha

[Chorus]

Them soaked up seeds need to swell up right

Gotta wait 'til they're plump before you see the light

Stop halfway and they'll just rot away

Keep the water fresh so they don't suffocate

Change it out boys, that's all I gotta say
