"People think that I'm no good
Painting pictures carving wood
Be a rich man if I could
But the only job I do well is here on the farm
On the farm
And it's breaking my back"
I love this verse and the vitriol he uses when he sings the last line. At frst glance this is a song about the simple joys of working on the land, but this man really wishes he didn't have to toil so hard for such little reward.
