For Beth Tillery, a good farmer...

See that cow across the way
Making that milk there, crunching that hay
Newborn calf knows what to do
Not at all like me and you

See that sun coming through the trees
Flowers blowing in the breeze
Working hard but living free
No one standing over me

If I can raise my kids up right
Then how can we go wrong?
I tell myself when the days get long:
If that don’t kill you it’ll make you strong

The world won’t pay you what you’re worth
When your work is digging dirt
When you hang around in nature’s church
You can sell your soul or you can do God’s work

Preachers preach the whole day long
That wrong is right and right is wrong
Me I sing a different song:
If that don’t kill you it’ll make you strong

See that sun coming through the trees
Flowers blowing in the breeze
Working hard but living free
That’s the only life for me

I’ve seen folks lose the life they made
Just to get the credit paid
Tell that guy at the FHA
That I’m not going out that way

People preach the whole day long
That wrong is right and right is wrong
Me I sing a different song
If that don’t kill me it’ll make me strong

You can preach the whole day long
That wrong is right and right is wrong
Better yet you can sing along:
If that don’t kill you it’ll make me strong
