Song Of The Corn

<br>Out in the field when the first has been born<br>Folks sing a song, song of the corn<br>Late in the day when the secrets are sworn<br>Folks tell a tale, tale of the corn <br>I heard a commotion one late afternoon<br>Someone was singing a funeral tune<br>As I lay watching them hoist up the cross<br>Something was burning, something was lost <br><br>Could you believe what the scarecrow had seen<br>Folks come to fall down to their knees<br>Rumours of strangers been buried alive<br>Black bats and barnyards send chills at my spine
