<b>More Than Just a Farm</b> by <i>Doug Briney</i><br />

Freckle face little guy, came flyin' up the drive-Mom and daddy taggin' right behind

City folk, head to toe, momma's fancy high heel broke-Yeah, I'd seen it all before a million times

They asked, "can he ride the tractor, Can he pet that cow with horns"

Well, I laughed real loud, set him on my plow and told him all about the farm

Chorus

It was my daddy's and my grandpa's

That 'ole barn's where I stole my first kiss

It's my past and my future

It's my home

And where I raise my kids

My bloods in every acre

And I've planted every seed

When I die it's where I'll rest in peace

Yeah, it's more than just a farm to me

Skinny as a rubber band, whisker face and summer tan, that boy came back to work my

Grandpa's land

Hands got rough, he got tough, made of the right stuff, that high school boy grew into a man

My fam'ly gave him 20 acres, on the day he took his bride

He cried out loud, said, "I'll make you proud, cause you're the man who changed my life...when

you said

Repeat chorus

Then he said, every night I'll kneel to God and pray

Someday my own grandson will say

Repeat chorus

It's more than just a farm

It's more than just a farm to me

Hey, ey, ey
