Tailgate Dust

Lời bài hát

[Verse 1] Sunup on the fence line Boots in red clay Coffee in a tin cup Heading out to work the day Old dog by the cattle gate Dust on the bed of my truck You can hear the screen door slam When the first horse wakes us up [Pre-Chorus] This land knows my name Every trail and every scar And when the wind rolls through It plays my favorite guitar [Chorus] Down on the ranch We work and we dance Kick up that dust Take a chance, take a chance Down on the ranch It's hard but it's grand We live by the dawn And the work in our hands [Verse 2] Mama's got a skillet song Singing through the smoke Daddy hums a two-step tune While he tightens up the yoke Little ones run wild Chasing calves in the yard Even the moon comes slow When the day's been this hard [Pre-Chorus] This land knows my name Every trail and every scar And when the sun goes down It shines right through my heart [Chorus] Down on the ranch We work and we dance Kick up that dust Take a chance, take a chance Down on the ranch It's hard but it's grand We live by the dawn And the work in our hands [Bridge] If the barn roof rattles Let it sing along If the road gets long We just lean into the song One more fence to mend One more sky to watch Then we cool down laughing At the fading of the day [Final Chorus] Down on the ranch We work and we dance Kick up that dust Take a chance, take a chance Down on the ranch It's hard but it's grand We live by the dawn And the work in our hands
