Future Farmers Of America Lyrics - Jimmy Newman

Future farmers of America all gather 'round 

and I will tell a story that took place in my home town 

It's all about the boy who made our school a happy place 

until he brought the FFA disgrace. 

There was this kid in school whose name was Joe Radinklefitch 

Everybody liked him 'cause his mom and dad were rich. 

Joe said he would like to be a farmer, don't you know. 

The teacher asked him what he'd like to grow. 

Now boy, that teacher wasn't very smart or very hip. 

In fact he had a habit of a'scratchin' where he itched. 

Y' know that teacher always had a little compliment, 

he didn't know that Joe was growin' hemp. 

Joe worked in his little garden, really takin' pains. 

He'd jump up and down and giggle every time it rained. 

The sheriff came for Joe one day, we don't know how he knew 

that Joe was smokin' everything he grew.
