Verse 1 

C                                              Am 
It's a mighty hard row that my poor hands have hoed 
C                                      Am 
My poor feet have traveled a hot dusty road 
C                                     Am 
Out of your Dust Bowl and Westward we rolled 
C                                                 Am 
And your deserts were hot and your mountains were cold 


Verse 2  

C                                   Am 
California, Arizona, I harvest your crops 
C                                          Am 
Well its North up to Oregon to gather your hops 
C                                                        Am 
Dig the beets from your ground, cut the grapes from your vine 
C                                         Am 
To set on your table your light sparkling wine 


Verse 3 

C                                        Am 
I worked in your orchards of peaches and prunes 
C                                         Am 
I slept on the ground in the light of the moon 
C                                         Am 
Every state in the Union us migrants have been 
                   C                             Am 
We'll work in this fight and we'll fight till we win 

Verse 4 

C                                         Am 
I slept on the ground in the light of the moon 
C                                        Am 
I worked in your orchards of peaches and prunes 
C                                         Am 
Wherever your crops are, I'll lend you my hand 
C                                       Am 
I'll ramble all over your green growing land 


Verse 5 

C                                        Am 
Green pastures of plenty from dry desert ground 
C                                              Am 
From the Grand Coulee Dam where the waters run down 
C                                         Am 
Every state in the Union us migrants have been 
C                                        Am 
We come with the dust and we go with the wind 


Verse 6

C                                      Am 
It's always we rambled, that river and I 
C                                               Am 
All along your green valley, I will work till I die 
C                                        Am 
This land I'll defend with my life if need be 
         C                                 Am 
Cause my pastures of plenty must always be free
