Intro - D
(verse 1)
DD/C
He gets up before the dawn,

it's the cheapest grain he's ever sold,

but he's still holdin on,
(chorus)

He just takes the tractor another round,

and pulls the plow across the ground,

And sends up another prayer,

He says Lord I never complain, I never ask why,

Please don't let my dreams run dry,

That hail storm back in 83'
