Sunflowers shine forever as far as I can see
I? m heading home to Kansas now on 7 days of leave
There? ll be 14 hour work days on vacation
Keeping this ole farm alive ain? t no part time occupation
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddy? s dad before
Well, it seems like it? s been forever
You? ve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And you? re counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So I? ll do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands and 7 days
Well, it? s all you? ve ever known, so it? s hard to understand
The sacrifice it takes just to pull something from the land
So I? ll keep turning over acres to get? em ready for the corn
And I will mend the crumbling fences that I repaired the year before
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddy? s dad before
Well, it seems like it? s been forever
You? ve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And you? re counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So I? ll do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands, and 7 days
When I doubt what difference
I can make in 7 days of leave
I remember what the Lord did
With one day less me
Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddy? s dad before
Well, it seems like it? s been forever
You? ve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And you? re counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So I? ll do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands, and 7 days
