'Fore I lose my faith in my next door neighbor

Just let me go home live next to the soil
[Verse]

When the work gets through no money no nothin'
Em D
There never will be livin' out of the sack
[Instrumental Verse]

From the hills I came that's where I'll go to

But while I'm here give me strength to toil
