CAB OF A DEERE

Verse 1
Sun cracks on that big blue sky
Coffee in a thermos
Dust in my eyes
Kick that clutch
Hear that old girl cough
Same old rig my granddad bought
Rows laid out like lines on my hand
Seed in the ground
Faith in the land
Radio hummin’
But I’m half in prayer
Just me, this field
And that John Deere
Chorus
Got dust on my boots
Diesel in my veins
Every turn of that wheel
Got my daddy’s last name
Plowin’ up worry
Turnin’ it to hope
Yeah, this dirt raised me
Taught me how to grow
Life looks better
In this cracked-up mirror
From the cab of my John Deere
Verse 2
Hard freeze came, took half the crop
Fields turned brown and the green just stopped
Still paid tithes
Still thanked the Lord
Even when it cut me to the core
Kids in the yard on that tire swing
Wife in the kitchen, supper on the rise
Bank keeps callin’
Sayin’ “time’s run out”
I just fire that engine
Drown ‘em out
Every pass I’m cuttin’ through the fear
Trustin’ steel
Trustin’ God
Trustin’ this John Deere
Chorus
Got dust on my boots
Diesel in my veins
Every turn of that wheel
Got my daddy’s last name
Plowin’ up worry
Turnin’ it to hope
Yeah, this dirt raised me
Taught me how to grow
Life looks better
In this cracked-up mirror
From the cab of my John Deere
Bridge (piano + vocal)
One day my boy’s gonna take this seat
Boots too big, same dusty feet
I’ll say, “Son, when the road ain’t clear
Go chase that sunrise in this old John Deere”
Final Chorus (lift)
Got dust on my boots
Diesel in my veins
Every turn of that wheel
Got my daddy’s last name
Plowin’ up worry
Turnin’ it to hope
Yeah, this dirt raised me
Taught me how to grow
Life rolls easy when you’re changin’ gears
Yeah, I found heaven in these farm-town years
Lookin’ out my window through a bug-stained smear
From the cab of my John Deere
