[Verse 1]
Em G Em Em7 A Asus4 A
Mama says she don't give a damn ...what those people say,
Em G Em Em7 A Asus4 A
Cane smoke can't be good for you ...day after day,
C G
Every year at harvest time,
D Em
When the black smoke filled the sky,
C G
She'd pick me up and take me home,
D Dsus4 D C D
And make me ...stay in - side------!
[Chorus]
C G D Em
Thibodaux to Raceland, there's fire in the fields,
C G D Em
All the way up the bayou, from La - fourche to Iber - ville,
C G D Em
Dirty air, dirty laundry, dirty money, dirty rain,
C G D Dsus4 D Em G
A dirty dark at daybreak burning ...the sugar cane------!

Christmas on the bayou, midnight's come and gone,

The parking lot is full of trucks,

I can see the furnace glow, everybody's working overtime,
D Dsus4 D C D
It's a good job ...even though-------...

...From Thibodaux to Raceland, there's fire in the fields,

A dirty dark at daybreak burning ...the sugar cane------!

First came the sugar cane, then came Thibo - daux,

They burn the leaves to harvest cash, money for the compan - y,

Money makes the world go round,

Money, ...money, money-------!

From Thibodaux to Raceland, there's fire in the fields,

A dirty dark at daybreak ...burning---------

The soot and ash are falling like a dark and deadly snow,
C G D Em
The air is full of poison to the Gulf of Mexi - co,
C G D Em
Dirty air, dirty laundry, dirty money, dirty rain,
C G D Dsus4 D Em G
A dirty deal with the Devil, burning ...the sugar cane--------!
