A Man On A Tractor With A Dog In A Field

I woke up the same way this morning| Like a stranger in my own life| Tired and confused with too much to do| Nothing left for my kids or my wife| I clung to that first cup of coffee| Praying God, won't you show me what's real| Then out in the distance I saw through the window| A man on a tractor with a dog in a field|| The dog walked just like it was smiling| The man drove like the world was all right| The tractor hummed on like a part of a song| That you sing to your children at night| His work was laid out there before him| In rows of green, his whole life was revealed| What I wouldn't give if I could just live| Like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field||Chorus: Let me do what I'm doing| Let me be where I am| Let me find peace of mind | On my own piece of land| When I'm lost, help me let go| And find someway to feel| Like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field|| (Solo)||Verse: There I was watching and wondering| My wife came down and sat beside me| She said, ‘It's not about living some other man's life| It's about seeing your own differently| This home and our love and these children| What more could one man hope to yield'| Then she touched my face and said, ‘There's more than one way| To be a man on a tractor with a dog in a field'|| (Repeat Chorus)|
