๐ Lyrics
I come from a land of oil and cattle
Hard work, blood, sweat and tears
My grandpa's grandpa, first broke the land
That's been ours for 100 years
The feds tried to break us
The bank tried to take us
But somehow we stayed in the saddle
I'm proud to be from a land of oil and cattle
I come from a land of wide open prairie
Blue skies and wheat fields of gold
They call em the flatlands, but to me it's the heartland
The best place that I've ever known
I don't have much cash
But I ain't a poor man
God don't give me more than I can carry
I'm proud to be from a land of wide open prairie
I come from a land at the foot of the Rockies
Where the eagle protects the sky
I fished these rivers when I was a child
Now I do as the traffic drives by
Fire took the jack pines
But we fought off the coal mines
The government tried โ but can't stop me
I'm proud to be from a land at the foot of the Rockies
I come from a land under one sun
Where my people, at one time, lived free
Before there was oil and fences for cattle
Mother Nature owned all you could see
Then the settlers came, and though we were brave
The healing has not yet begun
I'll find my place again in this land - under one sun
We'll find our place again in this land - under one sun
Hard work, blood, sweat and tears
My grandpa's grandpa, first broke the land
That's been ours for 100 years
The feds tried to break us
The bank tried to take us
But somehow we stayed in the saddle
I'm proud to be from a land of oil and cattle
I come from a land of wide open prairie
Blue skies and wheat fields of gold
They call em the flatlands, but to me it's the heartland
The best place that I've ever known
I don't have much cash
But I ain't a poor man
God don't give me more than I can carry
I'm proud to be from a land of wide open prairie
I come from a land at the foot of the Rockies
Where the eagle protects the sky
I fished these rivers when I was a child
Now I do as the traffic drives by
Fire took the jack pines
But we fought off the coal mines
The government tried โ but can't stop me
I'm proud to be from a land at the foot of the Rockies
I come from a land under one sun
Where my people, at one time, lived free
Before there was oil and fences for cattle
Mother Nature owned all you could see
Then the settlers came, and though we were brave
The healing has not yet begun
I'll find my place again in this land - under one sun
We'll find our place again in this land - under one sun
