Letra de This Hard Land (Live at Hovet, Stockholm, SE - 06/25/2005)
Hey, there mister Can you tell me what happened to the seeds I've sown? Can you give me a reason, sir As to why they've never grown?They've just blown around from town to town 'Til they're back out on these fields Yeah, where they fall from my hand Well, back into the dirt of this hard landHere, me and my sister From Germantown, yeah we did ride Well, we made our bed, sir From the rock on the mountainsideYeah, we've been blowin' around from town to town Yeah, lookin' for a place to stand Where the sun burst through the cloud to fall like a circle of fire Like a circle of fire down on this hard landNow, even the rain it don't come 'round It don't come 'round here no more And the only sound at night's the wind The wind slammin' the back-porch doorIt stirs you up like it wants to blow you down Twistin' and churnin' up the sand And leavin' all them scarecrows lyin' face down Facedown in the dirt of this hard landFrom a building up on the hill I can hear a tape deck blastin' "Home on the Range" I can hear 'em Bar-M choppers Sweepin' low across the plainsIt's me and you Frank we're lookin' for lost cattle Our hooves twistin' and churnin' up the sand Yeah, we're ridin' in the whirlwind searchin' for lost treasure Way down south of the Rio Grande We're ridin' cross that river in the moonlight Up onto the banks of this hard landHey Frank, won't ya pack your bags Meet me tonight down at Liberty Hall I just one kiss from you, my brother And we'll ride until we fallYeah, we'll sleep in the fields, we'll sleep by the rivers And in the morning we'll make a plan Well, if you can't make it Stay hard! Stay hungry! Stay alive! If you can And meet me in a dream of this hard landYeah!
