For farming families it’s a crime
Their way of life is on the line
They worked and toiled for what they’ve got
Foot and mouth has taken the lot
Foot and mouth has taken the lot
One by one all hopes are gone
In turn the gunman’s work is done
Our dreams are fed into the flames
And we're left with smoke and ashes
For becky morley it’s a crime
Her childhood days are on the line
Through these green fields she’d laugh and play
Foot and mouth took that away
Foot and mouth took that away
For farmer morley it’s a crime
His state of mind is on the line
He used to be so in control
Foot and mouth has taken it’s toll
Foot and mouth has taken it’s toll
For farming families it’s a crime
Their way of life is on the line
They worked and toiled for what they’ve got
Foot and mouth has taken the lot
Foot and mouth has taken the lot
