There's Gonna Be A Storm (The Complete Recordings 1966-1969) - Track 6
Barterers & their wives
Barterers & their wives
Trading, fading, faking, breaking,
Barter away their lives

Crowding the city gate
Shunning the master’s fate
Low decisions they envision,
Cleaning the paupers’ plates

In the marketplace, trading commonplace friends
Come to banter on odds to meet their own ends

Barterers hold their own
Pinching on what they loan
After seeding, people pleading,
Spending the heat alone

Who will sacrifice pride for being nice game
He’s in season & that’s the reason he came

Barterers & their trade
Lately fall back to fade
Every evening, packing, leaving,
Counting on what they’ve made

Wifely cooking will keep them looking their best
As they smile & set out beguiling with jest

Barterers & their wives
Barterers & their wives
Trading, fading, taking, breaking,
Barter away their lives
