[00:01.38] Workin' Man - Neil Young, Promise of the Real
[00:06.25]
[00:10.17]
[00:11.63] A working man in Indiana travelled from farm to farm
[00:17.11] Plantin' seeds and talkin' weather, working 90 farms
[00:22.35] Got to know the farmers knew all of their kids
[00:28.15] Out in the country, that was '96
[00:33.31]
[00:38.82] His life was good and steady when seeds were cash
[00:44.85] Next year the farmers were ready, the times were changing fast
[00:49.79] Supreme Court in session made a new law
[00:55.75] GMO seeds and patents had a fatal flaw
[01:05.03]
[01:05.53] Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas worked for Monsanto
[01:17.29] Well I don't know you but I do know who I am
[01:25.20]
[01:56.77] One summer morning just around dawn
[02:02.29] Four men with briefcases were on the working man's lawn
[02:07.68] We're gonna to sue you, take you to court
[02:13.37] For patent infringement, the criminals you support
[02:21.47]
[02:24.55] We're from Monsanto we own the seeds
[02:29.95] Give us the names of those farmers you seek
[02:34.90] You're gonna need big money to stand your ground
[02:40.82] Or we're gonna bury you, how does that sound?
[02:45.60]
[02:50.34] Working man lost all is his friends, his business too
[03:01.53] Well I don't know you but I do know who I am
[03:10.70]
[03:40.82] Now times have changed, things are picking up
[03:46.32] The wheels are rolling again on the old seed truck
[03:51.36] The cleaner's coming back have taken back the land
[03:56.73] They don't care the cost they're gonna take a stand
[04:06.28]
[04:06.71] Well I don't know you but I do know who I am
[04:17.69] Well I don't know you but I do know who I am
[04:26.45]
