Verse 1
Hey there mister, can you tell me what happened to the seeds I've sown
Can you give me a reason sir, as to why they ain't never grown
They've just blown around from town to town
Back out on to these fields
Where they fall from, from my hand
Back into the dirt of this hard land
Come on
Verse 2
Well me and my sister, from Germantown yeah, we did ride
And we made our beds sir, from the rock on the mountainside
We've been blowin' around from town to town
Lookin' for a place to land
Where the sun could break through the clouds and fall like a circle
D G Gsus4 | G |
The circle of fire down on this hard land
Verse 3
Well, now even the rain it don't come 'round, don't come 'round here no more
And the only sound at night's the wind slammin' that back porch door
Yeah, it stirs you up like it wants to just blow you down
Twistin' and churnin' up the sand
Leavin' all them scarecrows lyin' face down
D G Gsus4 | G |
Into the dirt of this hard land
Instrumental
| G | C | D | G | x4
Verse 4
Well, from a building up on the hill, I hear a tape deck blastin' Home On The Range
And I can hear them Bar-M choppers sweeping low across the plains
It's me and you Frank, we're lookin' for lost cattle
Our hooves twistin' and churnin' up the sand
Yeah, we're ridin' in the whirlwind searching for a treasure
Way down south of the Rio Grande
We're ridin' across that river in the moonlight
D G Gsus4 | G |
Yeah, up on to the banks of this hard land
Verse 5
Well hey, Frank won't you pack your bags and meet me tonight down at Liberty Hall
Ah, just one kiss from you my brother and we'll ride until we fall
We'll sleep out in the fields, we'll sleep by the rivers
And in the morning we'll make a plan
Well, if you can't make it stay hard, stay hungry, stay alive if you can
D G Gsus4 | G |
And meet me in a dream of this hard land
