Kenny Rogers - Homeland lyrics
[Kenny Rogers - Homeland lyrics]
There's a piece of prairie with
A white picket gate the geographic center of
The lower forty-eight
How long it's been in our
Family is anybody's guess
We were riding these plains
Before the pony express
There's a sycamore tree all
Splintered and brown
Well, it used to touch the sky
'til the twister came around
It's got this one green branch
Pointing in the air
Yeah, it's still hanging on
Just like the people 'round here
You can hold back the rain, bring on the wind
Knock us right down, we'll get up again
We've dug in deep, made our stand
This is our homeland
I can feel their spirit deep in my bones
Up on the hill, we carved it in stone
Been a long line before us
And little ones to come
Yeah, it's a family thing
That we're carrying on
You can hold back the rain, bring on the wind
Knock us right down, we'll get up again
We've dug in deep, made our stand
This is our homeland
We've dug in deep, we've made our stand
This is our homeland this is our homeland
This is our home
This is our homeland this is our homeland
This is our homeland
A white picket gate the geographic center of
The lower forty-eight
How long it's been in our
Family is anybody's guess
We were riding these plains
Before the pony express
There's a sycamore tree all
Splintered and brown
Well, it used to touch the sky
'til the twister came around
It's got this one green branch
Pointing in the air
Yeah, it's still hanging on
Just like the people 'round here
You can hold back the rain, bring on the wind
Knock us right down, we'll get up again
We've dug in deep, made our stand
This is our homeland
I can feel their spirit deep in my bones
Up on the hill, we carved it in stone
Been a long line before us
And little ones to come
Yeah, it's a family thing
That we're carrying on
You can hold back the rain, bring on the wind
Knock us right down, we'll get up again
We've dug in deep, made our stand
This is our homeland
We've dug in deep, we've made our stand
This is our homeland this is our homeland
This is our home
This is our homeland this is our homeland
This is our homeland
