| no easy way to go |
|
|
| i can still recall the day the man came up the walk |
|
and told us there'd been an accident
|
| better call an ambulance. yeah, looks pretty bad, |
| that's all he said, and then he drove away |
|
ma could hardly make the call, the tears were rolling down |
| she knew it when he knocked on the door |
| then we drove on down that road, to see what had happened |
| we saw dad's truck. ma said wait here in the car |
| chorus: well your windshield might get cracked |
| when the rocks fly off the tires |
| but you got to keep your eyes on the road |
| 'cause there's no easy way to go |
| who's gonna run the land? he just started planting when... |
| who knows how far he got |
| how you gonna pay the bill? how you gonna feed those kids? |
| you know how neighbors talk |
| it's funny how dreams can fill with rage |
| you gotta start living day to day |
| it probably shouldn't have turned out the way you planned |
| but every acre is still around; they never let his dream slip away |
| it's funny how dirt could mean so much |
