Lyrics:
Pickin’ wasn’t easy
Kept me brown and thin
Been a child for every season that the fruit was on the limb
Pack the truck Maria, tell the kids we’re off again
Cross a dozen states or more, we’ll teach em’ what we can.

Teach ‘em what we can’t do more
The land is good but still the livin’s poor

Harvest in September, drought in mid-July
January’s peekin’ through a white lace gypsy sky
March rolls in to April, then plant and pray for rain
Sweat like hell in August, run the Circle once again

Run the circle once again and then once more
The land is good but still the livin’s poor

Oregon in August, Michigan in May
Tryin’ to make enough to keep my family on its way
Buy the pickin’ boss a drink, to keep workin’ every day
You know it isn’t honest, but you do it anyway

Do it any way to keep alive
Do it anyway to keep alive
