Close to the Land - Michael Martin Murphey[00:00:00]

Way before the sun comes up[00:00:30]

Already on his second cup[00:00:33]

He's looking out across the open sky[00:00:36]

As streaks of orange pink and gray[00:00:42]

Wash over rows of new mown hay[00:00:45]

The rangeland fills a cowboy's heart with pride[00:00:48]

He rises slowly from his chair[00:00:54]

His back is stiff grey's in his hair[00:00:57]

He's spent a lot of lone days in the sun[00:01:00]

He ain't one much to complain[00:01:06]

He saddles up takes the reins[00:01:09]

And rides har till his working day is done[00:01:12]

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man[00:01:17]

In America's heartland living close to the land[00:01:24]

There's a love for the country[00:01:30]

And a pride in the brand[00:01:32]

In America's heartland living close to the land[00:01:36]

Close to the land[00:01:47]

When the sun is high overhead[00:01:54]

She's been eight hours out of bed[00:01:57]

She's still got a lot of work to do[00:02:00]

Pulling weeds an' patchin' jeans[00:02:06]

And keepin' faith when times are lean[00:02:09]

She does a man's work and a woman's too[00:02:12]

She'll run a tractor water stock[00:02:18]

Fix the truck then feed her flock[00:02:21]

But somehow she gets roses from the ground[00:02:24]

She ain't got a thing to prove[00:02:30]

She simply does what she must do[00:02:33]

From early morning till the sun goes down[00:02:36]

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man[00:02:41]

In America's heartland living close to the land[00:02:48]

There's a love for the country[00:02:54]

And a pride in the brand[00:02:57]

In America's heartland living close to the land[00:03:00]

In America's heartland close to the land[00:03:08]

There's something that the people know[00:03:18]

Who make things live and make things grow[00:03:21]

Deeper than the words of any sage[00:03:24]

That unless you've touched this earth[00:03:30]

Planted seeds or given birth[00:03:33]

The human heart can never come of age[00:03:36]

You can see it in the eyes of every woman and man[00:03:41]

In America's heartland living close to the land[00:03:47]

There's a love for this country[00:03:54]

And a pride in the brand[00:03:57]

In America's heartland living close[00:04:00]

Close to the land[00:04:07]

In America's heartland close to the land[00:04:10]

In America's heartland close to the land[00:04:16]
