From Corn to Kush

[Verse 1] I was born on this land, same as my dad We plow the fields and thank the Lord for what we have Woke up at dawn, put boots on the floor Feed the chickens, fix the fence, then till some more Got soybeans out back, corn in a row But the rain don’t fall and the prices stay low I got bills stackin’ high, tractors breakin’ down A man starts thinkin’ ‘bout leavin’ this town [Chorus] So I turned my gaze to a different seed A little green friend that don’t grow legal, guaranteed Tucked it out back behind the rusty barn Right where the scarecrow keeps the law off guard Now I’m breathin’ easy, if you catch my drift This ol’ farm’s got a brand new gift [Verse 2] Now my wife still bakes and my son still prays But daddy’s greenhouse got a purple haze The cows don’t moo much, but they sure do chill Even the rooster hits the snooze at will I sell tomatoes at the Sunday fair But what’s under the table ain’t exactly pears The preacher winked and said, “God’s plant, I hear” Then bought a brownie and a souvenir [Chorus] Now it’s danker than the cellar floor Smell hits your nose when you open that door I ain’t rich, but I ain’t broke Just ridin’ high on that farmer’s toke From plowin’ pain to puffin’ pride I’m harvestin’ smiles and bloodshot eyes [Bridge] Sheriff came knockin’ just the other day Said, “Smells like someone’s breakin’ the law this way” I said, “That’s just skunk in the chicken coop” Then tossed a nug to distract the troop [Final Chorus] Now I’m livin’ off the land in a brand new way With buds so thick they block the rays From dusk till dawn I’m tendin’ trees In cutoff shorts and flip-flop knees So raise your glass and roll that bush— Saved my farm with the dankest Kush
