Lyrics

Tulare dust in a farm boy's nose
Wondering where the freight train goes
Standin' in the field by the railroad track
Cursin' the strap on my cotton sack

I can see mom and dad with shoulders low
Both of 'em pickin' on a double row
They do it for a livin' because they must
That's life like it is in the tulare dust

The california sun was something new
That winter we arrived in '42
And I can still remember how my daddy cussed
The tumbleweeds here in the tulare dust

The valley fever was a common fate
To the farmworkers here in the golden state
And I miss oklahoma but I'll stay
If I must and help make a livin' in the tulare dust

The tulare dust in a farm boy's nose
Wondering where the freight train goes
Standin' in the field by the railroad track
Cursin' the strap on my cotton sack
