West Texas forecast more of the same
Sunny and mild no chance of rain
That old John Deere tractor aint moved in days
Oh, but hes out there climbin back on
Because hes yet to admit that his crops are all gone
She stares out the window fightin back tears
And watches him wastin his time in the fields
Theyre havin problems payin the bills
And she knows that it wont be long
Before the bank finally places a lien on the farm
And the tractor keeps rollin
The dust rises high
Creating the only cloud in the sky
Hes holdin his ground
But its gettin tough
Hes keepin his faith
In the Lord up above
And prayin for rain
Through a cloud of dust
Yesterday somethin in town caught his eye
The old hardware store had a help wanted sign
He thought about stoppin but he drove on by
Cause he just cant bear to let go
After all its the only life hes ever known
Yeah, hes holdin his ground
But its gettin tough
Hes keepin his faith
In the Lord up above
And prayin for rain
Through a cloud of dust
West Texas forecast more of the same
Sunny and mild no chance of rain
