THE FARMER FEEDS THEM ALL

The king may rule o'er land and sea
The lord may live right royally
The soldier rides in pomp and pride
But the farmer feeds them all

The farmer feeds them all
The farmer feeds them all
The busy farmer feeds them all
The farmer feeds them all
The farmer feeds them all
The busy farmer feeds them all

The writer thinks, the poet sings
The craftsman fashions wondrous things
The doctor heals, the lawyer pleads
But the farmer feeds them all

The merchant he may buy and sell
The teacher do his duty well
But men may toil through busy days
But the farmer feeds them all

The farmer's trade is one of worth
He's partner with the sky and earth
He's partner with the sun and rain
And he feeds, he feeds them all
