[Intro]
D
[Verse]
G
He said I'm Ted Lomas and I'm running for Congress
D
And I sure would appreciate your vote
D
I've got a small farm just out of Whitfield
G
A few cows and a big mortgage note
G
He was a charmer to the poor man and the farmer
C
And all of us naturally knew
G
We'd finally found us a voice for the congress
D G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you
[Verse]
G
From the beginning it was a horse race
D
Stiff and tough to the end
D
When the last vote was counted old Teddy just made it
G
He called it the great peoples win
G
But he moved to DC where he found it easy
C
Bragging the lobbyist blues
G
As his wealth kept growing he held to the slogan
D G
Singing I'm just a farmer like you
[Chorus]
C
I'm just a farmer like you
G
I wear the same brogan shoes
D
He'd sang the parody blues
G D D D D
Singing I'm just a farmer like you
[Verse]
G
He kept his farm down in Medlow County
D
Where each year he'd have a big sale
D
And the oil men and the bankers
D
And the big road contractors
G
Would be there come rain or come hail
G
And everyone knew that they paid more money
C
For the cows than the meat packers do
G
But when it was the right time he'd make the headlines
