Amarillo Sky Lyrics By Jason Aldean

    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 wearin’ down his body
    the diesel’s worth the price of gold
    it’s the cheapest grain he’s ever sold
    but he’s still holdin’ on

    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’
    please don’t let my dreams run dry
    underneath underneath this amarillo sky

    that hail storm back in ‘8
    sure did take a toll on his family
    but he stayed strong and carried on
    just like his dad and granddad 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

    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’
    please don’t let my dreams run dry
    underneath underneath this amarillo sky

    interlude

    and he takes the tractor another round another round
    another round another round another round
    and he takes the tractor another round another round
    he says i never complain i never ask ‘why’
    please don’t let my dreams run dry
    underneath underneath this amarillo sky
    underneath this amarillo sky
