Western Plains

I haven’t got a nickel
I haven’t got a dime (3x)
Out of work
With trouble on my mind
Out on the western plains

(Chorus)
Can you hear that whistle blowing
Can you feel that oil train rolling
Moving down the line (2x)
Out on the western plains

With each day that I am gone
I pray no wrong comes to you
While I’m out looking for a job
Out on the western plains
(Chorus)

Through each town I have seen
People like me or soon to be
Out of work looking for a job
Out on the western plains
(Chorus)

But I’m told there’s work to be found
Work to be found in a North Dakota town
Working on a a fracking rig
For the oil companies
(Chorus)

But I don’t know Lord how I will feel
How will I feel, how will I feel
Fracking for oil
On farmers fields
Out on the western plains
(Chorus)

As I look across these fields
Of golden wheat, I wonder how
Much more oil will they frack
Out on the western plains
(Chorus)
