Close To The Land (America's Heartland Theme)

Close To The Land (America's Heartland Theme)

(album: Heartland Cowboy: Cowboy Songs, Vol. 5 - 2006)

Way before the sun comes up
Already on his second cup
He's looking out across the open sky
As streaks of orange, pink, and gray
Wash over rows of new mown hay
The range land fills a cowboys heart with pride

He rises slowly from his chair
His back is stiff, greys in his hair
He's spent a lot of lone days in the sun
He ain't one much to complain
He saddles up and takes the reins
And rides hard til his working day is done

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man
In Americas heartland living close to the land
There's a love for the country and a pride in the brand
In Americas heartland living close to the land
Close to the land

When the sun is high overhead
Shes been eight hours out of bed
Shes still got a lot of work to do
Pulling weeds an patching jeans
And keeping faith when times are lean
She does a mans work and a womans too

She'll run a tractor, water stock
Fix the truck, then feed her flock
But somehow she gets roses from the ground
She ain't got a thing to prove
She simply does what she must do
From early morning til the sun goes down

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man
In Americas heartland living close to the land
There's a love for the country and a pride in the brand
In Americas heartland living close to the land
In Americas heartland close to the land

There's something that the people know
Who make things live and make things grow
Deeper than the words of any sage
That unless you've touched this earth
Planted seeds, or given birth
The human heart can never come of age

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man
In Americas heartland living close to the land
There's a love for the country and a pride in the brand
In Americas heartland living close to the land
In Americas heartland close to the land
In Americas heartland close to the land
