lyrics

You know I almost went South
You know I almost got out
But I planted my feet in the ground
This is where I’m from
You know I almost went South
You know I almost got out
But I planted my feet in the ground
This is where I’m from, this is where I’m from
I’m gonna take this land
I’m gonna stake this land
I’m gonna make this land
Because the land makes the man
When I go down to rest
For my final embarrassment
I just hope I’m dressed
In my new designer vest
When I go down to rest
For my final embarrassment
I just hope I’m dressed
In my new designer vest
I’ll rest when I’m dead
I’ll rest when I’m dead
I’ll rest when I’m dead
I’ll rest when I’m dead
I’m gonna take this land
I’m gonna stake this land
I’m gonna make this land
Because the land makes the man
You’ve got a lot of things
Coming your way
You’ll work laying railroad beams
All the livelong day
You’re not going anywhere today
You’ve got a lot of things
Coming your way
You’ll work laying railroad beams
All the livelong day
You’re not going anywhere today
When I go down to rest
For my final embarrassment
I just hope I’m dressed
In my new designer vest
But I won’t go down to rest
Until I am dead
I’ll rest when I’m dead
All the live long day
