Lyrics
On the combine
John Deere lunch kit and a thermos full of Kool-Aid
September harvest and I missed another school day
14 hours worth of work and dirt were lessons learned
Waist deep in those fields of gold
Seven tons of steel and a 12-year-old
Workin' hard just to keep it in a straight line
On the combine
Hand me down overalls and an AM radio
Tried to get it right the first time and take it slow
Alabama singing "In A Hurry" and "I Don't Know Why"
(I'm in a hurry to get things done)
Black clouds and it starts to rain
Runnin' short on time and outta faith
Nothin' you can do but pray for the sun to shine
On the combine
Every time I climb that ladder
It takes me back to things that matter
(Ooh-oh-oh)
80 acres and a Friday night
First date dinner in the cab beneath the moonlight
Cushion on a five gallon pail ridin' shotgun
Time goes by like those waves of grain
But I remember it like yesterday
Where I fell in love for the first time
On the combine
Now every time I climb that ladder
It takes me back to things that matter
(Ooh-oh-oh)
Workin' hard just to keep it in a straight line
Nothin' you can do but pray for the sun to shine
Where I fell in love, in love for the first time
We're still, workin' hard just to keep it in a straight line
Nothin' you can do but pray for the sun to shine
Where I fell in love, in love for the first time
On the combine
