Weather and Whether I Keep the Farm:DOWNLOAD — mp3
Verse 1:
I wake up every mornin’, check the sky for a sign,
Will it rain, will it shine, will the weather be kind?
The weatherman’s smilin’ like he knows the plan,
But out here on the farm, it’s all in God’s hands.
One wrong turn, and we’re dust in the wind,
Will this year bring drought or help me start again?
Chorus:
Meteorology, it’s a gamble with the sky,
Weather and whether I make it or say goodbye.
Will the clouds roll in, or the sun burn us dry,
Can’t predict my future, no matter how I try.
It’s a storm of decisions, and I’m prayin’ hard,
Weather and whether I’ll keep the farm or fold my cards.
Verse 2:
Last year, the rains came late, the crops were thin,
But this year could be different, I just need a win.
The corn’s barely sproutin’, but the forecast’s a guess,
One more dry week and it’s a big legal’ mess.
I got tractors to fix, bills to pay, seeds to sow,
But if the weather don’t cooperate, where will I go?
Chorus:
Meteorology, it’s a gamble with the sky,
Weather and whether I make it or say goodbye.
Will the clouds roll in, or the sun burn us dry,
Can’t predict my future, no matter how I try.
It’s a storm of decisions, and I’m prayin’ hard,
Weather and whether I’ll keep the farm or fold my cards.
Bridge:
I watch the clouds like they’re holdin’ my fate,
One raindrop too few, and it’s just too late.
But I keep on plantin’, hopin’ the sky will bend,
Because a farmer’s faith, well, it never ends.
Chorus:
Meteorology, it’s a gamble with the sky,
Weather and whether I make it or say goodbye.
Will the clouds roll in, or the sun burn us dry,
Can’t predict my future, no matter how I try.
It’s a storm of decisions, and I’m prayin’ hard,
Weather and whether I’ll keep the farm or fold my cards.
Outro:
So I’ll keep on workin’, watchin’ that sky,
Hopin’ for the rain and askin’ why.
Because weather’s one thing I can’t control,
But whether I keep this farm is a matter of soul.
