Mellencamp John Cougar - Rain On The Scarecrow слова песни




(John Mellencamp/George M. Green)Scarecrow on a wooden cross, blackbird in the barnFour hundred empty acres that used to be my farmI grew up like my daddy did, my grandpa cleared this landWhen I was five I walked the fence while Grandpa held my handCHORUSRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowThis land fed a nation, this land made me proudAnd son I`m just sorry there`s no legacy for you nowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowThe crops we grew last summer weren`t enough to pay the loanCouldn`t buy the seed to plant this spring and the Farmers Bank foreclosedCalled my old friend Schepman up to auction off the landHe said John it`s just my job and I hope you understandWell calling it your job ol` hoss sure don`t make it rightBut if you want me to I`ll say a prayer for your soul tonightAnd Grandma`s on the front porch with a Bible in her handSometimes i hear her singing, "Take me to the Promised Land."When you take away a man`s dignity he can`t work his fields and cowsThere`ll be blood on the scarecrow, blood on the plowBlood on the scarecrow, blood on the plowWell there`s ninety-seven crosses planted in the courthouse yardNinety-seven families who lost ninety-seven farmsI think about my grandpa and my neighbors and my nameAnd some nights I feel like dyin` like that scarecrow in the rainRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowThis land fed a nation, this land made me proudAnd son I`m just sorry they`re just memories for you nowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowTHis land fed a nationk this land made me proudAnd son I`m just sorry they`re just memories for you nowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plowRain on the scarecrow, blood on the plow------------------------------------------------------------------------------
