Dirt Road Dollars - The Lacs, Nate Kenyon

Monday morning rooster, cock a doodle doo

Clock squakin' on the night stand

Slapping the the alarm off

Stumble to the pot, got coffee on the stove top

Button up the blue collar, time to make the boots walk

Out the front door

Yeah, sun ain’t even up yet Sonny

But we sure are yeah, 'cause time is money

And we makin' them dirt road dollars

Way out yonder, out in them hollers

Doin' it like our fathers

Up on them tractors out in them pastures

Makin' it rain like water, farm boy dough

Twenty-four carat gold corn rows

Lunch break bite, couple sweet tea swallers

Right back to makin' them dirt road dollars

Aching, peelin', shuck stacks

Diggin', tillin', swing that

Hammer at the two-by

Forty hours well passed

Racking in the grain cash

Stacking up the hay stacks

Red clay paid 'cause we ain’t afraid to break backs

Or a good sweat

Nah, sun ain’t gone down yet Sonny

So we ain’t done yet

Hell nah, 'cause time is money

And we making them dirt road dollars

Way out yonder out in them hollers

Doing it like our fathers

Up on them tractors out in them pastures

Makin' it rain like water, farm boy dough

Twenty-four carat gold corn rows

Lunch break bite, couple sweet tea swallers

Right back to makin' them dirt road dollars

Yeah, uh-huh

I be up and at it by your first break

I be work the whole day

I ain’t into role play

Catch me in the role cage chillin' just a chewin' up that black dirt

Plowin', plantin', croppin' I ain’t stoppin' 'til my ass hurt

Silver queens shucking with the farm all truckin'

With them ace 55s boy, y’all ain’t seen nothing

I be gettin' with the pickin' nearly all day

Doing it all the way croppin' 'til we all pay, hey

There’s a long hard road 'til the next one starts

Buddy you don’t wanna know what the tractor parts cost

I can get you up a figure for a rig and plow

I got some heifers in the back but I don’t sell holy cows

Man that old Ferguson burnin' about 2.50 a gallon

My head churnin' up dirt and I’m up turnin' to plowin', you dig?

Probably do but on your own time

I keep the young-in's supper comin' down the lunch line

And we making them dirt road dollars

Way out yonder out in them hollers

Doing it like our fathers

Up on them tractors out in them pastures

Makin' it rain like water, farm boy dough

Twenty-four carat gold corn rows

Lunch break bite, couple sweet tea swallers

Right back to makin' them dirt road dollars

Come Saturday night I take my baby out on the town

And on Sunday it’s church, then lay around the house

And we making them dirt road dollars

Way out yonder out in them hollers

Doing it like our fathers (Like our fathers)

Up on them tractors out in them pastures

Makin' it rain like water, farm boy dough

Twenty-four carat gold corn rows

Lunch break bite, couple sweet tea swallers

Right back to makin' them dirt road dollars
