S Lazy H - Corb Lund[00:00:00]
Well I was born[00:00:07]
In this valley[00:00:09]
On this ranch I was raised[00:00:11]
I learned to lope[00:00:15]
Rope and dally[00:00:17]
On the S[00:00:19]
Lazy H[00:00:21]
Well the roots[00:00:23]
Of my people[00:00:25]
They run deep on this place[00:00:27]
I am sixth[00:00:31]
Generation[00:00:33]
On the S[00:00:36]
Lazy H[00:00:38]
And when it came[00:00:42]
To the future[00:00:44]
I never gave it a thought[00:00:46]
If there were broncs[00:00:50]
To be broken[00:00:52]
Endless steers[00:00:54]
To be caught[00:00:56]
Well my youth[00:00:58]
It was carefree[00:01:00]
For the work was my play[00:01:02]
And what I loved[00:01:06]
Would always be there[00:01:08]
On the S[00:01:10]
Lazy H[00:01:12]
I had one[00:01:16]
Beloved sister[00:01:18]
A few years younger than me[00:01:20]
Before a sole[00:01:24]
Cowboy had kissed her[00:01:26]
She left for school[00:01:29]
In the east[00:01:31]
Me I might[00:01:33]
Have gone to college[00:01:35]
Might have liked to fly planes[00:01:37]
But my dad[00:01:41]
Needed help to[00:01:43]
Run the S[00:01:45]
Lazy H[00:01:47]
So I worked[00:01:51]
There 'long side him[00:01:53]
Put adult years in this place[00:01:55]
And I gained[00:01:59]
Appreciation[00:02:01]
For the lines[00:02:04]
On his face[00:02:06]
And when mom[00:02:08]
Had grown older[00:02:09]
And when dad passed away[00:02:11]
It fell to me[00:02:16]
To look after[00:02:18]
The S[00:02:20]
Lazy H[00:02:22]
By now my sister[00:02:38]
She had married[00:02:40]
A sharp attorney back east[00:02:42]
We didn't see[00:02:46]
Eye to eye but[00:02:48]
I did my best[00:02:50]
To make peace[00:02:52]
What did they see[00:02:55]
When they looked over[00:02:57]
Over the fence[00:02:59]
One fine day[00:03:01]
They saw a whole[00:03:03]
Lot a value[00:03:05]
In the S[00:03:07]
Lazy H[00:03:09]
So after thought[00:03:13]
And assessment[00:03:15]
The court awarded them half[00:03:17]
And no cow[00:03:21]
Calf operation[00:03:23]
Carries that[00:03:25]
Kind of cash[00:03:28]
Well I worked[00:03:30]
Through the numbers[00:03:32]
Worked them every which way[00:03:34]
Yeah I went[00:03:38]
Through the numbers[00:03:40]
Oh and boys I'm afraid[00:03:42]
I had to sell[00:03:46]
Twenty sections[00:03:48]
Of the S[00:03:50]
Lazy H[00:03:52]
Sometimes right[00:03:56]
Isn't equal[00:03:58]
Sometimes equal's not fair[00:04:00]
There will soon[00:04:05]
Be rows of houses[00:04:06]
On that ridge[00:04:09]
Over there[00:04:11]
Many lifetimes[00:04:13]
Of labour[00:04:15]
Will be all but erased[00:04:17]
So shed a tear[00:04:21]
And look skyward[00:04:23]
God help the S[00:04:25]
Lazy H[00:04:27]
The last few years[00:04:43]
Were a struggle[00:04:45]
But I gave it my best[00:04:47]
And I tried[00:04:51]
To go forward[00:04:53]
On the land[00:04:55]
That was left[00:04:57]
Well I have lived[00:04:59]
With the sorrow[00:05:01]
And I will die with the shame[00:05:03]
For now the bank[00:05:07]
Owns what's left of[00:05:09]
The S[00:05:12]
Lazy H[00:05:14]
