"Tractor Rolls" lyrics

On the outskirts of Alabama
Somebody's firin' one up
In Nowhere, Oklahoma
There's no rain, just dust

He's breathin' it in
It ain't how he wants it, just the way that it is

The tractor rolls and rolls and rolls around
And the sun comes up till it goes back down
From the good and the bad and the hard and the pain
He gives it all he's got 'cause there's no other way
Keeps his roots down deep, keeps his roots on his feet
Can't give up on a field of gold, the tractor rolls

In a farm town in south Missouri
His heart and soul is in that ground
Yeah that's all he's ever known
And all he's ever dreamed about

He's passin' it down
Same patch of dirt three years from now

The tractor rolls and rolls and rolls around
And the sun comes up till it goes back down
From the good and the bad and the hard and the pain
He gives it all he's got 'cause there's no other way
Keeps his roots down deep, keeps his roots on his feet
Can't give up on a field of gold, the tractor rolls

He's breathin' it in
It ain't how he wants it, just the way that it is

The tractor rolls and rolls and rolls around
And the sun comes up till it goes back down
From the good and the bad and the hard and the pain
He gives it all he's got 'cause there's no other way
Keeps his roots down deep, keeps his roots on his feet
Can't give up on a field of gold, the tractor rolls
Tractor rolls
Yeah, the tractor rolls
