WHY / LEFT THE FARM

| left my dad, his farm, his plow,
Because my calf became his COW;
l left my dad-twas wrong, of course
Because my colt became his horse;
| left my dad to SOW and reap,
Because my lamb became his sheep;
| dropped by hoe and struck my fork,
Because my pig became his pork;
The garden truck that / made grow,
Was his to sell, but mine to hoe;
It's not the smoke in the atmosphere,
Nor the taste for life that brought me here
Please tell the platform, pulpit, press,
No fear of toll or love of dress,
Is driving off the farmer lads,
But just the methods of their dads
