Rural Heart

rise with the dawn feel the earth call boots hit the dirt giving my all sun climbs high sweat stains my shirt hands rough as leather never gonna hurt fence in the acres mending what's broke planting the seeds that tomorrow I walk back Ben's low muscles pull tight through storm and dry spell I work through the night dreams in my pocket faith in my stride building this life one step at a time hard works my rhythm heart full of fire Oh pushing the limits taking it higher ain't nothing sweeter than earning the calluses joy run the callus joy running deep yeah hard work is the song that I sing if I need work there are days when the weight feels too much to bear shadows acquit and creep in the air but I think of the ones waiting back home the smiles light the load make me strong to the bone hard works my rhythm heart full of fire pushing the limits taking it higher ain't nothing sweeter than earning the calluses joy run the callus joy running deep yeah hard work it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing it's a song that I sing
