[Intro]
Em G D Em
[Verse 1]
GIt's a mighty hard row
My poor Dhands Emhave hoed
GMy poor feet have traveled
A hot Ddusty Emroad
[Verse 2]
GOut of your Dust Bowl
And westward Dwe Emrolled
GYour deserts were hot
Your mounDtains were Emcold
[Verse 3]
GI worked in your orchards
Of Dpeaches and Emprunes
GSlept on the ground
By the light Dof your Emmoon
[Verse 4]
GOn the edge of your city
You'll see us Dand Emthen
GWe come with the dust
We're gone Dwith the Emwind
[Verse 5]
GCalifornia and Arizona,
I made Dall your Emcrops
GAnd its north up to Oregon
To harvest Dyour Emhops
[Verse 6]
GDig the beets from your ground,
Pick the grapes Dfrom your Emvine
GTo set on your table
Your light Dsparkling Emwine
[Instrumental]
Em G D Em G D Em D G D Em G D Em
[Verse 7]
GIt's green pastures of plenty
From dry Ddesert Emground
GFrom the Grand Coulee Dam
Where the waters Drun Emdown
[Verse 8]
GEvery state in this Union
Us migrants Dhave Embeen
GWe'll work in this fight
And we'll fight Dtill we Emwin
[Verse 9]
GAnd it's always we ramble
This riDver and EmI
GAll along your green valley,
I will work Dtill I Emdie
[Verse 10]
GAnd this land I'll defend
With my life Dif need Embe
G'Cause my pastures of plenty
Must alwDays be Emfree
