I'm Just A Farmer
Recorded by Cal Smith
Written by James F. Throckmorton

G
He said I'm Ted Lomas and I'm running for Congress
D7
And I sure would appreciate your vote

I've got a small farm just out of Whitfield
G
A few cows and a big mortgage note


He was a charmer to the poor man and the farmer
C
And all of us naturally knew
G
We'd finally found us a voice for the congress
D7 G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you


From the beginning it was a horse race
D7
Stiff and tough to the end

When the last vote was counted dld Teddy just made it
G
He called it the great peoples win


But he moved to DC where he found it easy
C
Bragging the lobbyist blues
G
As his wealth kept growing he held to the slogan
D7 G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you

C
I'm just a farmer like you
G
I wear the same brogan shoes
D7
He'd sang the parody blues
G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you


He kept his farm down in Medlow County
D7
Where each year he'd have a big sale

And the oil men and the bankers

And the big road contractors
G
Would be there come rain or come hail


And everyone knew that they paid more money
C
For the cows than the meat packers do
G
But when it was the right time he'd make the headlines
D7 G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you


It's been a long time since Ted got elected
D7
The farmers have had a long wait

Me I'm still mortgage up to my neck
G
And old Teddy owns half of the state


They say he's retiring some new guys aspiring
C
He's just an old poor boy too

And he's leading the strikers
G
That's driving their tractors
D7 G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you

C
I'm just a farmer like you
G
I wear the same brogan shoes
D7
He'd sang the parody blues
G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you

Repeat last verse
