1
The gravel spur off the 83 line, the one that leads out to Brownlee
2
It's straight and flat, and there's some old cat tracks
3
You're in Cherry county now son
4
The south and her grandeur ain't never been my land, no sir
5
Sand and rain, old pine and lead pane
6
Stoorfronts bowed and broken down
7
There's a river here, and she leads somewhere
8
But it don't matter much where son
9
"˜Cause the waves out past the loam, they've never been my home
10
Your granddad, he made his way to this land
11
He had a black 38 Ford
12
Back in those days, this was a better place than what you see here today

Now just grey dust and bones, red rust and head stones

My son, if you pray, pray alone
15
You'll be the only one
16
It ain't much, but hard hearts, sand and such
17
It's alright, every day turns to night
18
This land ain't dyin', but she's a little tired of the times of tryin'
19
To lay her low, but these roots run deeper than you know
20
Take my feet, lay them in the stream
21
Put my voice to the wind
22
Hold my hands, press them in the sand
23
Give my heart to the grasslands
24
I was never one, for these city streets my son
25
And if you pray, pray alone
26
You'll be the only one
Richard Marx - Hazard
