Buying The Farm
I grew old living the dream Down here on the farm Heaven on Earth is how it seems With all its country charm
The rooster crows corn grows tall Cows out in the field We reap and sow through spring and fall With a prayer to seal the deal
The last sunset hits mmy eyes To my crop of children i say goodbye Bring me top 'o the hill where it's shady I'll watch over it all pushing up daisies I borrowed this land since i was born Now it's my time,to buy the farm
I loved this life the good and bad Now my fences all been mended Turn out the light and hang my hat My days have finally ended
The last sunset hits my eyes To my crop of children i say goodbye Bring me top 'o the hill where it's shady I'll watch over it all pushing up daisies I borrowed this land since i was born Now it's my time,to buy the farm
Now that ol mule can rest and enjoy these forty acres While i'm getting my wings and go happily meet my maker
[chorus]
