News vans gathered round that hundred acre farm
That twister just came through and blew away
An old man stood there with a little dog in his arms
Trying his best to think of what to say
They said sir what in the world are you gonna do
Now that all them crops you've raised are gone
He surprised them as he smiled and he said y'all to tell the truth
I ain't lost a single thing at all
See my son on the tractor
Straighten up what's left of the barn
He's a better man than I ever thought to be
And that there beautiful girl
She's damn near my whole world
Looks like her momma and Lord she fights like me
And them cornrows may seem like gold and I've lost everything
Long as I've got my family and my faith
Well that's the best damn crop I've ever raised
He told them how his daddy's daddy bought the place
And built that house and barn with his bare hands
The anchor said it must be tough to watch all that just turn to dust
He said ma'am that ain't nothing but a piece of land
See my son on the tractor
Teaching his son how to drive
You can't buy that kind of love at a hardware store
And that there beautiful girl
She's damn near my whole world
Her hearts the kind you just can't find no more
And them cornrows may seem like gold and I've lost everything
Long as I've got my family and my faith
Well that's the best damn crop i've ever raised
In all my days beneath the son
This might be my finest one
Because I can see it clearly now
All the work that God has done
See my son on the tractor
Arms up there by that cross
Helping my grandson lay roses on the ground
And that there beautiful girl
She's damn near my whole world
Lord her momma'd smile if she could just see her now
And them cornrows may seem like gold and I've lost everything
Long as I've got my family and my faith
And this little dog she'd left when she passed away
Lord for all the years that I've got left I pray
That that's the best damn crop I've ever raised
