Hard Country
Lyricist：Rick Bowles, Robert Byrne
Early to sleep and early to rise
Wiping the sleep from my little one's eyes
Hit the long rows and cut â€~em down to size
Take it to market and see what it buys
In the hard country
Making a living by the sweat of my brow
Hard country
Looking at the world from the back of a plow
An honest days work for an honest days pay
Honestly you know it ain't a living wage
Sweating in the sun and praying for rain
Supper and sleep and do it all again
In the hard country
Making a living by the sweat of my brow
Hard country
Looking at the world from the back of a plow

Brother took a job in the county seat
Thought he'd bought a ticket to easy street
Well he got laid off from the factory
Now he's back on the lower forty with me
In the hard country
Making a living by the sweat of my brow
Hard country
Looking at the world from the back of a plow
So grab your partner and do-se-do
Louisiana hayride's on the radio
Finally the harvest moon's aglow
Wouldn't trade mine for any life I know
In the hard country
Making a living by the sweat of my brow
Hard country
Looking at the world from the back of a plow
