letra de acre by acre - chuck brodsky
my father’s father was a hard-working man
spent his whole lifetime working his land
he plowed with a jack–ss and he built with his hands
the balcony where the auctioneer stands
acre by acre, it all disappears
3 generations and 70 years
the cows & the chickens, the tractor & the barn
big money buying up all of these farms
my own father worked a 12 hour day
from sun-up to sundown, the wheat, corn, and hay
i worked right beside him & i learned from his ways
he taught me to sweat & he taught me to pray
acre by acre, it all disappears
3 generations and 70 years
the cows & the chickens, the tractor & the barn
big money buying up all of these farms
i knew one day that it all would be mine
i’d p-ss it on down to my own son in time
when my daddy died back in ‘72
i stepped into his boots, i knew just what to do
i had me a dream & i took out a loan
interest rates then, they were still pretty low
i planted my seeds but before they could grow
they came telling me i had to pay what i owe
acre by acre, it all disappears
3 generations and 70 years
the cows & the chickens, the tractor & the barn
big money buying up all of these farms
