Using a hoe and a spade;
Digging and narrowing early and

That's what they want me for.
Fighting my battles and pulling my

Maybe little bit more.

Who scorned the yesterday,
Tending my turnips, potatoes and

Working from morning to night,
Using pitchfork instead of a gun.
Working that others may fight.
