Come here ladies and gentleman
Listen to my song
Play it to you right
But you may think it wrong
May make you mad
But I mean no harm
Its just about the renters
On Pennys farm
Its a hard time in the country
Down on Pennys farm

Go into the fields
And you work all day
Deep into the night
But you get no pay
Promise you some meat
Or a little bucket of lard
Its hard to make a living
On Pennys farm
Its a hard time in the country
Down on Pennys farm

Hear George Penny
Hell be coming into town
With a wagon load of peaches
Not a one of them sound
Gotta get his money
Gotta get a check
Pay you for a bushel
But you never get a peck
Its a hard time in the country
Down on Pennys farm

George Pennys renters
They be coming into town
With their hands in their pockets
And their heads hanging down
Go to the merchant
And the merchant hell say,
your mortgage it is due
And Im looking for my pay
Its a hard time in the country
Down on Pennys farm

Deep into his pocket
With a trembling hand,
cant pay you what I owe
But ill pay you what I can
Down to the merchant
And the merchant make a call
Put you on the chain gang
Dont pay at all
Its a hard time in the country
Down on Pennys farm
