PRAIRIE MOTHERS
As recorded by Blind Mountain Holler
(From the 2019 EP DARK DAUGHTERS)
[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm
By the light of the moon they dance fertility
Dm
Ask the goddess of old to shape their destiny
Bb C Dm
Emaciated children cry as the crops died
[Verse 2]
Dm
Fathers sent off to war just to settle the score
Dm
Of a rich man afraid to touch the working poor
Bb C Dm
They came back without their feet and hands to unforgiving lands
[Chorus]
Bb C Dm
It's in the way they make their pay when people are up for sale
Bb C Dm
They're gonna fuck you for no money then lock you up in debtor jail
[Verse 3]
Dm
Busting heads, busting unions, keeping people weak
Dm
They shot a man who had his hands up in the air last week
Bb C Dm
The blood stained streets and hands become too much for me
[Violin Solo]
Dm Bb C Dm
Gm Dm Gm Bb
Dm
[Chorus]
Bb C Dm
It's in the way they make their pay when people are up for sale
