letra de ma baker's little acre - john d. loudermilk

now a little old lady by the name of ma baker lived out of town on one square acre
in a little white house with a picket fence all around
she had a kind and a gentle way till the day the tva
tried to make ma baker sell her little acre of land
they showed her a map of how the river ran and a sketch of a brand new dam
but ma baker wouldn’t sell her little acre of land
she said pa left this to me sonny and i wouldn’t sell for love nor money
no sir ma baker’s gonna keep her little acre of land
the next time they came they brought the sheriff
found ma a rockin’ in an old porch chair
just a knittin’ and a rockin’ out in the evening sun
she said i think you best to wait and don’t just step through the picket gate
and on ma’s lap they noticed pa’s old shotgun
[ harmonica ]
yeah now out in the middle of the brand new lake is a little island of one square acre
and ma baker’s just as happy as she can be
and she can’t swim but she can float and catch big b-ss from her motor boat
and when the wind ain’t blowin’ too much she can water ski
yeah and my baker still owns her little acre of land
