My Father's Son lyrics
Song information
Artist: Montgomery Gentry Album: Carrying On
Lyrics
Old white washed barn doors Rain rusted tin Straw hat shirt and blue jeans Hangin?in the wind There? never a time for these bones to mend
Up before the sunrise The frost on my fields I?e got this diesel burnin? Turning these four wheels Across this land i?e been handed down I feel my roots run deep in this ground
So stand me up Tall in this seat Lord, help me guide This plow beneath my feet And turn this earth Over one more time Some say this way of life is done But not for my father? son
Three generations Before I ever came Cut back these timbers And bet their lives on grain And I wanna see just once before I die Us doin more than just barely getting?by
So stand me up Tall in this seat Lord, help me guide This plow beneath my feet And turn this earth Over one more time Some say this way of life is done But not for my father? son
Now and then I walk my fence Down on county road Watch the cars go rushin by And disappear like ghosts Out where the sky meets the amber waves Oh i? a rock in this land god made
So stand me up Tall in this seat Lord, help me guide This plow beneath my feet And turn this earth Over one more time Some say this way of life is done But not for my father? son
Oh no, not for my father? son Oh no. mmmm-mmm
