There's a place I remember so well
With stories that only I can tell 
Come listen to my story for a while
But be prepared, what you hear won't make you smile 

Be a farmer or a preacher, and look a little meeker 
Don't tell anyone about your blues
Submit and obey, and thank the Lord every day
That you can't live a life that you choose 
Cause someone's gotta fill your daddy's shoes 

There is a man who stands up so high 
White skin, covered with a suit and tie 
He tells you what to do and what to say
Says you're the devil if you find another way

Be a farmer or a preacher, and look a little meeker 
Don't tell anyone about your blues
Submit and obey, and thank the Lord every day
That you can't live a life that you choose 
Cause someone's gotta fill your daddy's shoes

There's a woman there who sits down so low
Covered all the way from head to toe 
From her mouth you'll never hear a sound 
But her devil eyes will always stare you down

Be a farmer or a preacher, and look a little meeker 
Don't tell anyone about your blues
Submit and obey, and thank the Lord every day
That you can't live a life that you choose 
Cause someone's gotta fill your daddy's shoes

I was born with a desecrated name
It haunts me and it makes me feel ashamed
The anger comes about behind closed doors 
But it never helps me heal from all the sores

Be a farmer or a preacher, and look a little meeker 
Don't tell anyone about your blues
Submit and obey, and thank the Lord every day
That you can't live a life that you choose 
Cause someone's gotta fill your daddy's shoes

Be a farmer or a preacher, and look a little meeker 
Don't tell anyone about your blues"
