Verse 1
Morning breaks on rolling land,
Boots hit mud, cup in hand,
Engines cough, the day begins,
Work to do, no easy wins.
Through the yard and past the gate,
A loyal shadow never late,
Four paws steady, tail held high,
Watching tractors rumble by.
Verse 2
Chasing crows from fields of grain,
Running wild through sun and rain,
Knows each path and every turn,
Every lesson hard-earned learned.
By the barn or by the truck,
Waiting still through all the muck,
Doesn’t care for fame or gold,
Just the land and stories told.
Chorus
Hey there, farmer’s dog, don’t slow down,
King of the fields, no need for a crown,
Through the mud, through the fog,
Side by side with the farmer’s dog.
No spotlight bright, no city lights,
Just open days and quiet nights,
Through it all, thick or thin,
That dog’s where the heart has been.
Verse 3
Sheep move slow across the hill,
One sharp bark and they stand still,
Eyes locked in, the job gets done,
Working hard ‘til setting sun.
Wind rolls cold across the land,
Still right there, a steady hand,
Doesn’t speak but understands,
Every word, every command.
Bridge
No need for words, no grand parade,
Just muddy tracks and choices made,
In every storm, in every test,
That dog will always give its best.
Chorus
Hey there, farmer’s dog, don’t slow down,
Running fields that stretch for miles around,
Through the mud, through the fog,
Side by side with the farmer’s dog.
No fame, no fuss, just honest days,
Walking quiet country ways,
Through it all, come rain or sun,
Two lives working hard as one.
Outro
When the daylight fades to grey,
And tools are finally put away,
By the fire, no need to roam,
That farmer’s dog… has brought it home.
