House and 90 Acres |
| I’ve got a house and 90 acres some cattle in the barn |
| Two kids with no mama, she left in a saleman’s arms |
| A sign by the mailbox says there’s an auction in the |
| Yard |
| Born and raised has been damn easy but lately living’s |
| Hard |
| The children miss their mama but there ain’t nothing I |
| Can do |
| If she was all I had to worry about well I’d guess I’d |
| Miss her too |
| But I’ve watched my tools and tractor leave in someone |
| Else’s hands |
| I grit my teeth, I’m let 'em go but I won’t give up my |
| Land |
| This house and 90 acres, the only place I’ve left to |
| Stand |
| My roots are anchored solid, I ain’t machinery I’m a |
| Man |
| I’ll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun |
| This house and 90 acres |
| What’s said is good as done |
| There’s jobs up in the city I could probably drive a |
| Truck |
| Or I could move 300 miles from home but that would be |
| Giving up |
| Well you know that I ain’t leaving if it’s just my |
| Pride I save |
| I might be on the front porch or I might be in a |
| Hillside grave |
| This house and 90 acres, the only place I’ve left to |
| Stand |
| My roots are anchored solid, I ain’t machinery I’m a |
| Man |
| I’ll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun |
| This house and 90 acres |
| What’s said is good as done |
| This house and 90 acres |
| What’s said is good as done |
