	Lyrics Momma take the breakfast dishes Put ‘em in the sink Papa’s going to the barn he said he has to think Lately all his memories are swallowed in a drink The mortgage’s due and we can’t pay the farm is on the brink ** But than we won’t have to feed the people anymore When they take away our tractors and they lock the silo doors The corn and wheat will all be shipped in from a foreign shore So now we won’t have to feed the people --- anymore Silence serves the supper table Papa reads the mail Two days left to pay what’s due an ordinary tale But tender can’t be made with drought and thirsty soil that fails Tomorrow might turn off the lights six empty faces wail ** Lately everything we work so hard for Is going to the bank Papa sits and cleans his shotgun with a look that’s pale and blank Mamma’s always on her knees with prayers of hope and thanks Tomorrow may be judgment day so Lord I’ll just be frank ** Momma take the breakfast dishes Put ‘em in the sink Papa’s going to the barn he said he has to think Lately all his memories are swallowed in a drink The mortgage’s due and we can’t pay the farm is on the brink ** But than we won’t have to feed the people anymore When they take away our tractors and they lock the silo doors The corn and wheat will all be shipped in from a foreign shore So now we won’t have to feed the people --- anymore Silence serves the supper table Papa reads the mail Two days left to pay what’s due an ordinary tale But tender can’t be made with drought and thirsty soil that fails Tomorrow might turn off the lights six empty faces wail ** Lately everything we work so hard for Is going to the bank Papa sits and cleans his shotgun with a look that’s pale and blank Mamma’s always on her knees with prayers of hope and thanks Tomorrow may be judgment day so Lord I’ll just be frank **
