With Michael McDonald<br />
<br />
Sunflowers shine forever as far as I can see<br />
I'm heading home to Kansas now on 7 days of leave<br />
There'll be 14 hour work days on vacation<br />
Keeping this ole farm alive ain't no part time occupation<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me<br />
Back here where you need me<br />
To the farm where I was born<br />
Just like your Daddy's dad before<br />
Well, it seems like it's been forever<br />
You've been hanging on through<br />
The wind and the weather, <br />
And you're counting on the only son you ever raised<br />
So I'll do all I can to save this place<br />
One man, two hands, and 7 days<br />
<br />
Well, it's all you've ever known, so it's hard to understand<br />
The sacrifice it takes just to pull something from the land<br />
So I'll keep turning over acres to get 'em ready for the corn<br />
And I will mend the crumbling fences, that I repaired the year before<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me<br />
Back here where you need me<br />
To the farm where I was born<br />
Just like your Daddy's dad before<br />
Well, it seems like it's been forever<br />
You've been hanging on through<br />
The wind and the weather, <br />
And you're counting on the only son you ever raised<br />
So I'll do all I can to save this place<br />
One man, two hands, and 7 days<br />
<br />
Bridge:<br />
When I doubt what difference I can make in 7 days of leave<br />
I remember what the lord did with one day less me<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me<br />
Back here where you need me<br />
To the farm where I was born<br />
Just like your Daddy's dad before<br />
Well, it seems like it's been forever<br />
You've been hanging on through<br />
The wind and the weather, <br />
And you're counting on the only son you ever raised<br />
So I'll do all I can to save this place<br />
One man, two hands, and 7 days
