I once was a tool of opression |
|
As green as a sucker could be |
|
And monopolies banded together |
|
To beat a poor hayseed like me |
|
The railroads and the old party bosses |
|
Together did sweetly agree |
|
They thought there would be little trouble |
|
In workin' a hayseed like me |
|
In workin' a hayseed like me |
|
In workin' a hayseed like me |
|
They thought there would be little trouble |
|
In workin' a hayseed like me |
|
But now I've roused up a little |
|
Their greed and corruption I see |
|
And the ticket we vote next November |
|
Will be made up of hayseeds like me |
|
Will be made up of hayseeds like me |
|
Will be made up of hayseeds like me |
|
And the ticket we vote next November |
|
Will be made up of hayseeds like me |
