| scarecrow on a wooden cross blackbird in the barn | |
| Four hundred empty acres that used to be my farm | |
| I grew up like my daddy did my grandpa cleared this land | |
| When i was five i walked the fence while grandpa held my hand | |
| Chorus: | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| This land fed a nation this land made me proud | |
| And son i'm just sorry there's no legacy for you now | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| The crops we grew last summer weren't enough to pay the loans | |
| Couldn't buy the seed to plant this spring and the farmers bank foreclosed | |
| Called my old friend schepman up to auction off the land | |
| He said john it's just my job and i hope you understand | |
| Hey calling it your job ol' hoss sure don't make it right | |
| But if you want me to i'll say a prayer for your soul tonight | |
| And grandma's on the front porch swing with a bible in her hand | |
| Sometimes i hear her singing "take me to the promised land" | |
| When you take away a man's dignity he can't work his fields and cows | |
| There'll be blood on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Blood on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Well there's ninety-seven crosses planted in the courthouse yard | |
| Ninety-seven families who lost ninety-seven farms | |
| I think about my grandpa and my neighbors and my name | |
| And some nights i feel like dyin' like that scarecrow in the rain | |
| Chorus: | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| This land fed a nation this land made me proud | |
| And son i'm just sorry they're just memories for you now | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| This land fed a nation this land made me so proud | |
| And son i'm just sorry they're just memories for you now | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow | |
| Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow |
