James Mcmurtry - 60 Acres

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   

Turned off the tv


sat down to dinner


phone rang, we were saying grace


grand ma died


left us sixty acres


the last of the old home place 





sixty acres up on the cap rock


what am I supposed to do with that


uncle Claude got a eight wheeled tractor


plow it under in nothing flat


we could plant some maize


we could plant some cotton


we could plant some oats just to see if they'd grow


but I don't like farming


don't like the hours


don't like a life that goes so slow





(chorus)


glory glory


hallelujah


right back atcha


hope that'll do ya


don't look at me like theres something I shouldn't a'said


just cause that old bird's dead





now cousin Clifford


he got the good land


right on the highway out by Air Base road


looks like a Wal-Mart waiting to happen


I mean to tell you it's a pot of gold


It's in the city limits, zoned commercial


Got city water and a sewer line


What with the base expanding from consolidation


It's worth a fortune and it oughta been mine





(chorus)


glory glory


hallelujah


right back atcha


don't she look natural?


don't look at me like there's


something growing outa my head 


just cause that old bird's dead
