Plains of Nebrasky-O - Eric Andersen[00:00:00]

Written by：Eric Andersen[00:00:01]

Have you heard about a country where the rivers run free[00:00:09]

That's a place where I think you ought to go[00:00:14]

Where the corn stands high tall as the sky[00:00:18]

On the great plains of Old Nebrasky-O[00:00:23]

In school I read of men who died by the gun[00:00:34]

But not of those who died by the hoe[00:00:38]

The land has drunk the rains of many a farmer's blood[00:00:42]

Now forgotten and buried long ago[00:00:46]

Where are the hands that plowed fields without sleep[00:00:51]

Hands that saved a dying calf without rest[00:00:55]

Where are the feet that walked down them hot dusty trails[00:00:59]

On their way to seek their fortunes going west[00:01:03]

And where are the fathers who died in the dust[00:01:08]

And mothers who died hungry in the snow[00:01:12]

And where are the kids that watched the banks plow their houses down[00:01:16]

Those are the things I guess my teaches never knowed[00:01:20]

Have you heard about a country where the rivers run free[00:01:24]

That's a place where I think you ought to go[00:01:28]

Where the corn stands high tall as the sky[00:01:32]

On the great plains of Old Nebrasky-O[00:01:37]

You tell me drought hurt only corn and not men[00:01:47]

You smile and say hard times have gone away[00:01:51]

I guess I should listen to my city politician[00:01:56]

Who keeps telling me these are better days[00:02:00]

Is there anybody left to walk a muddy mile[00:02:04]

Is courage a word that's only said[00:02:08]

Is it true them dusty days are days that never really were[00:02:12]

But are only tales in books to be read[00:02:16]

Have you heard about a country where the rivers run free[00:02:20]

That's a place where I think you ought to go[00:02:24]

Where the corn stands high tall as the sky[00:02:29]

On the great plains of Old Nebrasky-O[00:02:34]
