Arkansas Traveler   Lyrics


Hey farmer, you been livin' here all your life, not yet
Hey farmer, where does this road go?
Been livin' here all my life, it ain't gone nowhere yet
Hey farmer, how do you get to Little Rock?Listen stranger, you can't get there from here
Hey farmer, thought you said that mud-hole weren't very deep?
Only comes up to here on me ducks
Hey farmer, when you gonna fix that leakin' roof?Ah stranger, when it's a rainin' it's too wet to fix it
And when it's dry it's just as good as any man's houseHey farmer, you're not too far from a fool are you?
Just a barbed-wire fence between us
Hey farmer, you don't know very much do you?
No, but I ain't lost

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Michelle Shocked (born Dallas, Texas, February, 1962) is the stage name of Michelle Karen Johnston, an American singer-songwriter. As a young feminist, she left Texas to travel, Kerouac-style, and was caught up in Reagan-era grassroots politics. Her musical career was ignited by a bootleg recording made around a Kerrville Folk Festival campfire on a Sony walkman. Released in England as ‘The Texas Campfire Tapes’ without Shocked’s authority, its success abroad enticed Mercury Records to offer the newcomer a recording contract.
