Jack OC and The Alien - Fix This Fence (The Dad Song)

These clouds got something to say
Panic in the Plains as it comes our way
You better have strong roots or that wind will make you sway
We've got to work on tomorrow today
The old man's voice echoes through the windbreak
The hayfield, a couple pastures away
Irrigation boots weren't meant for running and hopping gates
But we've got to work on tomorrow today
Life on the farm is pretty laid-back
That's according to John but he must not've met my dad
These lives, they rely on him and he relies on them
He can't fix the world, but he can fix this fence
So the Dodge diesel lullaby is humming away
I got the front seat because my brother is a stray
I wish I was line dancing like that corn in the rain
But we've gotta work on tomorrow today
Life on the farm is pretty laid-back
That's according to John but he must not've met my dad
These lives, they rely on him and he relies on them
He can't fix the world, but he can fix this fence
He said he ya' see that old farmhouse just passed the hay?
Well, there is sweating blood fell upon this clay
It's the reason we're breathing living life that's worth stay
It's why we work on tomorrow today
Life on the farm is pretty laid-back
That's according to John but he must not've met my dad
These lives, they rely on us and we rely on them
We can't fix the world, but we can fix this fence
And if we couldn't, we never had a chance.
So I work on tomorrow...
