The Hard-Working Hillbilly
Country, banjo, guitarLyrics
(Verse 1)
Way down yonder on a dusty old trail,
Lives a hillbilly fella, hearty and hale.
With calloused hands and a sun-kissed brow,
He's up at dawn, never backs down.
(Pre-Chorus)
He's got a heart full of grit and a spirit so free,
Tackles each day with simplicity.
(Chorus)
Oh, he's the hard-working hillbilly,
Livin’ life in the mountainside.
With a banjo in his hand and a dream in his eyes,
He’ll never give up, never hide.
(Verse 2)
The rooster crows, and he rolls out of bed,
Works the fields from the barn to the shed.
Rain or shine, he's ready to plow,
Singing a tune while the sweat rolls down.
(Pre-Chorus)
He's got a love for the land, and he takes it in stride,
With a heart as steady as the rolling tide.
(Chorus)
Oh, he's the hard-working hillbilly,
Livin’ life in the mountainside.
With a banjo in his hand and a dream in his eyes,
He’ll never give up, never hide.
(Bridge)
When the sun sets low, and the moon starts to rise,
He's by the fire with family by his side.
Sippin’ on sweet tea, sharin' tales of the day,
In the star-lit night, he finds his way.
(Verse 3)
He knows the hills like the back of his hand,
And walks this earth on his own proud land.
With every season, he's planting a tune,
Harvesting hard 'neath the bright harvest moon.
(Pre-Chorus)
Through joy and sorrow, he'll carry his load,
On the winding path and the dusty road.
(Chorus)
Oh, he's the hard-working hillbilly,
Livin’ life in the mountainside.
With a banjo in his hand and a dream in his eyes,
He’ll never give up, never hide.
(Outro)
With a banjo in his hand and a gleam in his eye,
This hillbilly soul will forever rise.
He's the hard-working hillbilly, standin' strong and proud,
Living his life, singing out loud.
