Now, take this bit into your mouth,
And pull this rig until I say "Whoa"
I've got ten thousand acres that need plowed!
You should have finished it days ago!
You'd better pull your weight around here,
Or they'll turn you into glue!
And don't pull a little and stop awhile
I want every furrow dug deep, straight, and true

It's seeding time, and all I've got is a swayback
Guess you'll have to do
It's seeding time Now, don't you pin your ears back!
We've got too much work to do!

The squinting man with tobacco stains
Spits his dribble at your feet,
And he slaps you like an ass
You're wondering where to go
You plod into the dust cloud,
Not soon to return
You'd better pull your weight around here,
Or they'll turn you into glue!

It's seeding time, and all I've got is a swayback
Guess you'll have to do
It's seeding time Now, don't you pin your ears back!
We've got too much work to do!

You pull a little and stop awhile
Your knee buckle from the strain
The brown man whips you with his belt,
Cussing you like the wrath of God!
He says,

It's seeding time, and all I've got is a swayback
Guess you'll have to do
It's seeding time Now, don't you pin your ears back!
We've got too much work to do!
