letra de the nester - lefty frizzell
[intro]
papa
papa look yonder
look yonder way down the road
well it looks like a bunch of them cattlemen comin’
to drive us from our home
[verse 1]
it looks as if you’re right boy
well we’d better hurry now son
i’ll unhitch the team
you run to the house
and help your ma load our guns
[chorus 1]
’cause we ain’t-a gonna run
we’re gonna stand and fight
the lord will help us
he knows we’re right
we ain’t fightin’ folks
that’s for sure
but this land abound is worth fighting for (fightin’ for)
[verse 2]
you can stop right there mister cattleman
now you’ve came far enough
you’ve come gunnin’
thinkin’ we’d go runnin’
but we gonna call your bluff
[verse 3]
you’ve got us far outnumbered
just my boy, his ma, and me
but our guns are loaded
and if we gotta die
we’ll bring along some company
[chorus 1]
no we ain’t-a gonna run
we’re gonna stand and fight
the lord will help us
he knows we’re right
we ain’t fightin’ folks
that’s for sure
but this land abound is worth fighting for (fightin’ for)
[verse 4]
we’ve scratched and we’ve dug in this land
we’ve worked ’til our hands were raw
the government says
that it belongs to us
but you say that you’re the law
[verse 5]
we’re nesters but we ain’t cowards
we’ll fight and we’ll die for this place
come war, come draft
come h-ll or high water
we’re here and we aim to stay
[chorus 1]
no we ain’t-a gonna run
we’re gonna stand and fight
the lord will help us
he knows we’re right
we ain’t fightin’ folks
that’s for sure
but this land abound is worth fighting for (fightin’ for)
[verse 6]
then the cattleman’s hard face softened
and a faint smile touched his lips
and he said “mister
i gotta hand it to ya
you folks have got a lot of grit
[verse 7]
i’m a big man here in this country
my word is the law in this land
but i say you and me
are gonna be neighbors
and i’d be proud to shake your hand”
[chorus 2]
“cause i like to see a man
who will stand and fight
i hate to admit it
but i guess you’re right
you folks got courage
that’s for sure
and this land of yourn is worth fightin’ for” (fightin’ for)
[outro]
yeah this land of yourn is worth fightin’ for (fightin’ for)
