Early to bed and early to rise
Wiping the sleep from my little one's eyes
Hit the long road and cut 'em down to size
Take it to market and see what it buys in
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
An honest day's work for and honest day's pay
Honestly you know it ain't a living wage
Sweating in the sun and praying for rain
Supper and sleep and do it all again
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
Brother took a job in the county seat
Thought he bought a ticket to Easy Street
Well, he got laid off from the factory
Now he's back on the rolling forty with me
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
ย
So, grab your partner and Dosey Doe
Louisiana Hayride's on the radio
Finally, the harvest moons a-glow
Wouldn't take mine for any life, I know
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
(Hard country) just to make a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
(Hard country)
(Hard country)
(Hard country) making a living by the sweat of my brow
(Hard country) looking at the world from the back of a plow
