He gets up before the dawn Packs a lunch and a thermos full of coffee It's another day in the dusty haze Those burnin' rays are wearing down his body And diesel's worth the price of gold And it's the cheapest grain he's ever sold But he's still holding on CHORUS He just takes the tractor another round And pulls the plow across the ground And sends up another prayer He says Lord I never complain I never ask why But please don't let my dream run dry Underneath, Underneath this Amarillo sky That hail storm back in '83 Sure did take a toll on his family But he stayed strong and carried on Just like his dad and grandad did before him On his knees every night he prays Please let my crops and children grow Cause that's all he's ever known CHORUS He just takes the tractor another round And pulls the plow across the ground And sends up another prayer He says Lord I never complain I never ask why But please don't let my dream run dry Underneath, Underneath this Amarillo sky And he takes the tractor another round Another round, another round And he takes the tractor another round Another round He says I never complain I never ask why But please don't let my dreams run dry Underneath, underneath this Amarillo Sky Underneath this Amarillo sky
