Abandon

Everything went wrong 
I'm sorry boys, I've got to let you go 
We've had some hard times 
And the long rain, it didn't show 
Hired hands, I've seen them come and go 
But you don't come much better 
Today's Blue Monday 
I just got a bad news letter 


This day has come 
The darkest cloud on our horizon 
My hands are tied down 
To that promise note I signed upon 
Always been this way 
It's the poor man who gets hurt 
All you ever work for 
Is to leave your footprints in the dirt 


You work your fingers to the bone 


The deed is done 
The fruit will fall to someone else's hand 
That's how the land lies 
Now we all know where we stand 
You'll have to walk away 
Don't let them see you running 
Today's Blue Monday 
I should have seen it coming 


You work your fingers to the bone 


If sweat and tears were all it took 
To make this valley green 
We'd be alright but now it's gone 
They've taken everything 
They say it's just an act of God 
And that's the way ill wind blows 
You've got thirty days to pack your bags 
Say goodbye, hit the road 


You work your fingers to the bone
