Farmer Fred Reports

Saw Farmer Fred sitting beneath his oak tree
He was all smiles and had a face filled with glee
Now this is what he reports to me

Last week I thought myself to be in dire straits
Then Uncle Sam came through with a check
Now my chicken coop is once again fully stocked
My friend it’s like money for nothing and chicks for free

Perhaps a short guitar riff for me. Thanks Jan.
