Thirty Years of Farming Recorded by James King Written by Fred Eaglesmith
G There's a little white note on a gate by the road C G That a man put up yesterday
And when we saw it we all ran out A7 D7 Just to see what it had to say
G And when we read it our eyes filled with tears C G And they fell to the cold hard clay
Something 'bout a mortgage
Something 'bout foreclosure D7 G Something 'bout failing to pay
Oh and on the post by the general store C G They've put up a little sign
An auction sale day after tomorrow A7 D7 At the end of the Lincoln Line
G Thirty years of farming thirty years of heartache C G Thirty years of day to day
Oh my daddy stopped talking
The day the farm was auctioned D7 G There was nothing left to say
Oh my momma's tears fell freely down C G As she walked amongst the flowers in the yard
And every number the auctioneer called A7 D7 Was like a blow to her precious heart
G And every number the auctioneer called C G Meant another thing was sold that day
While everything was auctioned
And we stood there watching D7 G As they loaded it and drove it away
Repeat #3,4
At the day's first dawning we awoke this morning C G There was nothing for us to do
Nothing in the granary No hay in the meadow A7 D7 No cattle no tractor no tools
G So we loaded up the car
With the clothes that we wore C G And the few things we managed to save
Momma read from the Book
We took one last look D7 G And then we drove away
Repeat #3,4
