[Verse 1] He drags in from a dusty field To a stack of unpaid bills Tractor payments three months late The banks callin everyday He aint sure what hes gonna do He turns on the evenin news [Chorus] And they bailed out Detroit Bailed out Wall Street Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae All while the American farmer Was out balin hay [Verse 2] He aint like those corporate suits No golden pair of shoes If his crops dry up or drown Well its all in Gods hands now The whole world shakin in its shoes But he just keeps plowin through [Chorus] And they bailed out Detroit Bailed out Wall Street Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae All while the American farmer Was out balin hay [Verse 3] The way that he was raised A mans gotta pull his weight Or hell get left behind So he rises with the sun Get what needs doin done Theres no such thing as a free ride [Chorus] And they bailed out Detroit Bailed out Wall Street Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae All while the American farmer All while the American farmer Was out balin hay [Outro] Out balin hay
