Farmer - Lyrics - Dan Bern

You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting wheat His little farm is down the street You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting millet Your eyes are huge, just like a skillet You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting scallions His people come from a long line of Italians Whistle You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting leaks They're good each day of the week You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, and rutabagas With seeds that come from Venezuela You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting shoes If they don't grow, we've got nothing to lose You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting flowers They grow a foot every hour Whistle You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting corn, he's planting wheat His little farm is down the street You are a ghost, you are a charmer Look there is jones, he is a farmer He's planting wheat, he's planting corn I am so glad that you were born
