Sun gleams on from the edge of the world

Like a big red drop of blood

And it pools til its heavy enough

To roll off beneath the cut

Darkness wipes it away

And the world goes black

If I can get this plate moving

Ain’t nothing out here to stop me

Ain't no hills and no rocks

I can draw a straight line easy

Oh, the rains on my back

And the whole world is flat

The wind ain’t blown here in days

Strange and lonely

The only sign is some old man in the diner talking about rain

That’s only hearsay

I’ll believe we’ll see no rain

Then again, I've been stranger things

Like a whole world is flat

We’ll build a barn over yonder

Plant some trees out to the south

Grow some corn or some cotton

Put a fence around the house

We can live here forever
