Testo This Land Is Killing Me
Testo This Land Is Killing Me
I'm sorry for calling
I know it's almost ten
But I just need to talk to someone
I just need a friend
And I'm sorry for lying
'Cause when I said, "I'm fine"
Barely hanging on I can't sleep at night
'Cause this land is killing me
Bank said I got six weeks
Yeah, but I ain't seen a drop of rain for over nine months now
And this land is all I know
Four generations, I called it home
Hell and I don't wanna be the one to go and let them down
Yeah, it might be the dust and dry
But I can hardly breathe
I swear to god
This land is killing me
The price of hay keeps rising
Hell, I can barely feed 'em now And that four by four's still up on blocks
And that tractor's still broke down
This land is killing me
Bank said I got six weeks
Yeah, but I ain't seen a drop of rain for over nine months now
And this land is all I know
Four generations, I called it home
Hell, and I don't wanna be the one to go and let them down
Yeah, it might be the dust and dry
But I can hardly breathe
I swear to God
This land is killing me
Yeah, I've fought fires, drought and floods
So I know I'll get through
But I'm just in a rough patch, man
That's why I'm calling you
Man
This land is killing me
Bank said I only got six weeks
Yeah, you know I've tried my best but I just can't figure this one out
But this land is all I know
Four generations, I called it home
Hell, and I don't wanna be the one to go and let them down
Yeah, it might be the dust and dry
But I can hardly breathe
Oh, it might be the years I spent out working in this heat
But I swear to God
This land is killing me
It's killing me
Man, it's killing me
I know it's almost ten
But I just need to talk to someone
I just need a friend
And I'm sorry for lying
'Cause when I said, "I'm fine"
Barely hanging on I can't sleep at night
'Cause this land is killing me
Bank said I got six weeks
Yeah, but I ain't seen a drop of rain for over nine months now

Man, it's killing me
