Sittin’ on a dozen tons of steel Lookin’ out clear across the field

Sun is sinkin’ low into the sky And there’s not a single day goes by

I don’t think of when dad got sick And the family had to pick What to do…

Momma asked, “Darlin’ can’t you stay? We won’t make it any other way.

It’d be just through harvest time…” and so, My lips said ‘Yes’, my heart was yellin’...’NO’

My football buddy, Ronnie Fripp Went to college on a scholarship I could have too…

When I think of all my dreams Worn out over time As evening turns a golden sun to rust

You reach out and take my hand As darkness starts to fall And pray for us, together in the dusk

A basket fillin’ up with clothin’ pins A couple of my dresses in the wind

Sun is goin’ to visit someplace new And my mind is slowly driftin’ to

That letter in the mail today I opened and I tucked away You ne- ver knew

Kathy Hodges wrote me once again To say her officer, and gentleman

Is reassigned to Germany next year She can hardly wait to try the beer

I really don’t, have to see Every country, overseas Just one or two...

When I think of all my dreams Worn out over time As evening turns a golden sun to rust

You reach out and take my hand As darkness starts to fall And pray for us, together in the dusk

(Man) Off to work, everyday I go (Woman) Only life, I have ever known

(Man) Though I find my spirit often roams (Woman) My body never seems to leave this home

(W)Do the laundry, (M)Plow the ground (W)Ain’t nothing for me (M)in this town (M+W) Except for you… Just one or two...

When I think of all my dreams Worn out over time As evening turns a golden sun to rust

You reach out and take my hand As darkness starts to fall And pray for us, together in the dusk
