Rodney Atkins - A Man On A Tractor Lyrics lyrics

rate me

I woke up the same way this morning

like a stranger in my own life

tired and confused with too much to do

nothing left for my kids and my wife

oh I clung to that first cup of coffee

praying god, won't you show me what's real

then out in the distance I saw through the window

a man on a tractor with a dog in a field

the dog walked just like it was smiling

the man drove like the world was all right

the tractor hummed on like a part of a song

that you sing to your children at night

his work was laid out there before him

in rows of green, his whole life was revealed

oh what I wouldn't give if I could just live

like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field

chorus:

let me do what I'm doing

let me be where I am

let me find peace of mind

on my own piece of land

when I'm lost, help me to let go

and find someway to feel

like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field

there I was watching and wondering

my wife came down and sat beside me

she said. “It's not about living another man's life

it's about seeing your own differently

oh this home that I love and my children

what more could one man hope to yield

then she touched my face

and said, “there's more than one way

to be a man on a tractor with a dog in a field

(repeat chorus)
