Daddy Won't Sell the Farm - Ameritz Tribute Standards (阿莫瑞兹致敬标准)

His cows get loose and run

Right through the fast food parking lots

And Daddy gets calls from the mini-malls

When they're downwind from his hogs

When his tractor backs up traffic

The reception ain't too warm

The city's growing around him

But Daddy won't sell the farm

You can't roll a rock up a hill that steep

You can't pull roots when they run that deep

He's gonna live and die

In the eye of an urban storm

Daddy won't sell the farm

He worked and slaved in 68

He bought these fields and trees

He raised his corn and a big red barn

And a healthy family

He learned to love the woodlands

He can't stand to do them harm

There's concrete all around him

But Daddy won't sell the farm

You can't roll a rock up a hill that steep

You can't pull roots when they run that deep

He's gonna live and die

In the eye of an urban storm

Daddy won't sell the farm

One day he's gonna leave it all to me

And I'll start my own branch of the family tree

They'll get the message written

On the roof of the barn

Daddy won't sell the farm

You can't roll a rock up a hill that steep

You can't pull roots when they run that deep

He's gonna live and die

In the eye of an urban storm

Daddy won't sell the farm

We're gonna live and die

In the eye of an urban storm

Daddy won't sell the farm

Oh you know a country boy can survive
