Amarillo Sky

He gets up before the dawn
 Packs a lunch and a thermos full of coffee
 It's another day in the dusty haze
 Those burnin' rays are wearing down his body
 And diesel's worth the price of gold
 And it's the cheapest grain he's ever sold
 But he's still holding on
 CHORUS
 He just takes the tractor another round
 And pulls the plow across the ground
 And sends up another prayer
 He says Lord I never complain I never ask why
 But please don't let my dream run dry
 Underneath, Underneath this
 Amarillo sky
 That hail storm back in '83
 Sure did take a toll on his family
 But he stayed strong and carried on
 Just like his dad and grandad did before him
 On his knees every night he prays
 Please let my crops and children grow
 Cause that's all he's ever known
 CHORUS
 He just takes the tractor another round
 And pulls the plow across the ground
 And sends up another prayer
 He says Lord I never complain I never ask why
 But please don't let my dream run dry
 Underneath, Underneath this
 Amarillo sky
 And he takes the tractor another round
 Another round, another round
 And he takes the tractor another round
 Another round
 He says I never complain I never ask why
 But please don't let my dreams run dry
 Underneath, underneath this
 Amarillo Sky
 Underneath this
 Amarillo sky
