Generate meaning
1
Watch the field behind the plow turn to straight, dark rows
2
Feel the trickle in your clothes, blow the dust cake from your nose
3
Hear the tractor's steady roar, Oh you can't stop now
4
There's a quarter section more or less to go
5
And it figures that the rain keeps it's own sweet time
6
You can watch it come for miles, but you guess you've got a while
7
So ease the throttle out a hair, every rod's a gain
8
And there's victory in every quarter mile
9
Poor old Kuzyk down the road
10
The heartache, hail and hoppers brought him down
11
He gave it up and went to town
12
And Emmett Pierce the other day
13
Took a heart attack and died at forty two
14
You could see it coming on 'cause he worked as hard as you
15
In an hour, maybe more, you'll be wet clear through
16
The air is cooler now, pull you hat brim further down
17
And watch the field behind the plow turn to straight dark rows
18
Put another season's promise in the ground
19
And if the harvest's any good
20
The money just might cover all the loans
21
You've mortgaged all you own
22
Buy the kids a winter coat
23
Take the wife back east for Christmas if you can
24
All summer she hangs on when you're so tied to the land
25
For the good times come and go, but at least there's rain
26
So this won't be barren ground when September rolls around
27
So watch the field behind the plow turn to straight dark rows
28
Put another season's promise in the ground
29
Watch the field behind the plow turn to straight dark rows
30
Put another season's promise in the ground
