The rise of the angry farmer
THE AGRICULTURAL WHEELCome all ye sunburnt sons of toil, Arise from thine oppression;'Tis true we till the stubborn soil, But a highway to progression,Which enemies cannot conceal, Is opened by this mighty Wheel.
Come, Let us join our hearts and hands, And set this Wheel a-going;Perhaps 'twill roll to other lands, Its seeds of fortunate sowing,'Till all the world its power may feel, And let's bless the Agriculture Wheel.
Heed not the idle words of those Who would our march to freedom stay.They get their money, food and clothes From us who labor day by day;And if they could, I guess they'd steal The power and glory of the Wheel.
