Verse 1
In the soil where the quiet roots grow
Lies a treasure the world should know.
Brown on the outside, plain to the eye
But there’s strength hidden deep inside.

Vitamin C in every bite
Keeps you steady, keeps you right.
B6 for the mind to hold.
Simple food, but rich as gold.

Verse 2
Potassium strong for the heart to beat
Fuel for the muscles above your feet
More than a banana, who’d believe
Such power in what we often leave.

Fiber in that rugged skin
Working quiet from within
Nature wrapped it all so well
In a coat that farmers sell.

Chorus
Oh Russet potato, steady and true
Giving us strength in all that we do.
From field to table, humble and bold
Simple on the outside, inside gold.

Oh Russet potato, faithful and free
Fuel for the body, soul’s energy
No fame, no fortune, still you stand
The working heart of this great land.

Verse 3
Slow-burning fire, steady and strong
Carrying workers all day long.
No sugar rush, no sudden fall
Just quiet power through it all.

Fat-free, clean, and honest fare
A gift of earth beyond compare
From morning light to evening low
It gives you more than you may know.

Verse 4
Low in cost but rich in worth
One of the finest gifts of earth
Feeds a family, warms a night
Simple meals that feel just right.

No gluten here, just honest ground
A safe and steady food we’ve found
Through every age, through every role
The Russet feeds both heart and soul.

Final Chorus
Oh Russet potato, steady and true
Giving us strength in all that we do.

From field to table, humble and bold
Simple on the outside, inside gold.

Oh Russet potato, faithful and free
Fuel for the body, soul’s energy
No fame, no fortune, still you stand
The working heart of this great land.

Young boys learn to work during the potato harvest, and they get paid.
