Letra
Some call it a honest livin'
I call it the short straw
Third generation farmer
Who's workin' the ground raw
Well I learned it from my daddy
Who learned it from his pa
Who tamed the land
With an ox and plow
And never took a day off
Waitin' for the rain to go
So I can get back out
With the plow and tow
Round and round
Keep on smilin'
Makin' hay
While the sun is shinning
Got a little money in the mattress
Saved for a rainy day
Never thought that rainy day
Would wash the farm away
Last year was a bust
Year before that the same
One more and im certain
The bank'll take the farm away
I'm waitin' for the rain to go
So I can get back out
With the plow and tow
Round and round
Keep on smilin'
Makin' hay
While the sun is shinning
And I don't mean to complain
About too much of a good thing
So I'll stand out in the rain
Until I hear the birds sing
Oh
There's only one thing left to do now
Drop to my knees and pray
Lord above if you hear me
Won't you bring me a sunny day
Cause If the rain don't stop fallin'
The sun can't dry the field
I could work for days on end
Without a crop to yeild
Waitin' for the rain to go
So I can get back out
With the plow and tow
Round and round
Keep on smiling
If its raining I'll being crying
Dreaming of makin' hay
While the sun is shinning
