Farm Aid Song Lyrics - Neil Young

Well I hate to say the farmer 

Was the last of a dying breed 

Living off the land 

And taking what he needs 

Don't say much for the future 

When a family can't survive 

I'd hate to say the farmer 

Was the last of his kind. 

In the struggle for parity 

Not one man's voice can sound 

Cause the foundation 

of the conglomerate 

Is firmly in the ground. 

Yeah, they want to feed the world 

But for power and for greed 

Then they'll cut off the supply 

Until they get what they need.

Well I dreamed I saw a dust bowl 

Where the farmers used to live 

Earth was flying through the sky 

It had nothing left to give 

Tractors were burning 

On the Whitehouse lawn 

Just woke up one morning 

And the farmers all were gone 

I hate to say the farmer 

Was the last of a dying breed 

Living off the land 

And taking what he needs. 

Don't say much for the future 

When a family can't survive. 

I'd hate to say the farmer 

Was the last of his kind.

Don't say much for the future 

When a family can't survive. 

I'd hate to say the farmer 

Was the last of his kind.
