Fieldworker

(albüm: Wind On The Water - 1975)

Digging in your fields, pulling up your food
No matter how I feel, don't do me no good
"Treat me like a human" is all I got to say
The man that I am working for won't let me get away

I came across your border just to work for you
I give you all I got to give, what more can I do?
Don't give me law and order, tell me to stick around
While standing in the picket line, you try and shoot me down, down...

I come to your country to work on the land
Watching the seeds as they die in the sand
Fighting for your freedom with a hoe in your hand
Fieldworker, fieldworker

Digging in your fields, I'm pulling up your food
No matter how I feel, don't do me no good
"Treat me like a human" is all I got to say
The man that I am working for won't let me get away
