When the rooster crows in the morning
I make my coffee strong and hot
And pile a skillet high with potatoes ham and eggs
I used to work on the 33rd floor
Hopinâ that somebodyâd come and pull the alarm
But life is good
Since I moved back to the farm
Life is good
Since I moved back to the farm
The sun climbs high in the big blue sky
And sets the back hills all aglow
And this black dirt now, lord is prettier to me than gold
The days can be long and the work is hard
But this country livinâs got a different sort of charm
So when you ask me
Do I ever think about movinâ back to town?
Well I remember the man livinâ in the tin can
And he was always lookinâ down
So I was glad to trade that workinâ wage
For five good acres and a pretty red barn
When north the winds blow I cut the stalks down low
And let the fields lay to rest
And we pass around the guitar late into the night
And when it gets cold I just stoke the stove
Keeps my little cabin house plenty warm
Somehow it just seems right feelinâ tired at night
And my head always singinâ some pretty new song
