letra de tough country - the panhandlers

[verse 1]
i wonder why we settled here
with the rattlesnakes and the pr-ckly pear
and a water table, two hundred foot down
and the land before the lazy chair
a power pole, frigidaire
and a car to drive you ten miles into town
nothing but a stubborn mule to break ground

[chorus]
for a little slice of heaven holding up against h-ll
hardened up by the summers, it won’t take no coffin nails
just like the old mesquite that’s been sprayed hundred times with remedy
this land is what i am, tough country
[verse 2]
rough, but man, she’s beautiful
when the time is right and the pond is full
and the rainfall brings the flowers towards the sky
and when the grass turns green and the cows get fat
take it in ’cause it won’t last
it’d bring a tear to my grandpa’s eye
knowing every good thing dies

[chorus]
for a little slice of heaven holding up against h-ll
hardened up by the summers, it won’t take no coffin nails
but when her love rains from above
it will provide everything i need
that makes me who i am, tough country

[instrumental interlude]

[outro]
just like the ground, they’ll lay me down
when my work’s done, it’s where my roots run deep
this land is what i am, tough country
