Factory Farm Blues
Factory farm,
Won't take me home,
Look up my grave,
When you get home.
When you get home
Unbury my bones,
Bring them back from a factory farm.
Factory farm,
Where once a home
My Mother's family
Raised and sowed
What heaven gave
Of rain and loam,
Given way to a factory farm.
Factory farm,
No range to roam,
Just dust and clay,
Fly chemical spray.
Praise the market,
And cork a loan,
For company seed,
By company owe
My soul to a factory farm.
Chorus 1
Bridge
You can take my body.
You can take my life.
Down, down, down,
On the killing floor.
But can they take my soul?
Do you even know
What the hell is soul?
Do you know
What is soul?
What is soul?
Factory farm,
Long, endless day,
Make just enough,
Can't call me slave.
The road to hell
Is smooth and paved.
Roll on to the factory farm.
Factory farm,
What has become?
Another hundred head,
Bled down to one.
If I take no picture,
Is no harm done?
No dirty glove and
No smoking gun?
Street-clean brand
Still has to run
On the blood of a factory farm.
Chorus 2
