lyrics

sun is rising, light up the coals
we’re making a stand all day
a cold case of lone star, my old over/under
and 700 secondhand clays
run the dogs to the northwest corner
by the creek if the water ain’t down
season comes we’ll find someplace to hunt ‘em
Lord they’re gonna miss this ground

we’re selling the farm in the morning
all the woods and the fields and the fence
and I wish somebody could tell me
in a way that it all made sense
oh we’re raising hell tonight
even if it’s the very last time
so long to the good days

cousin Ruby’s been taking it hard
been 15 years since she cried
I hear ol’ Bert Young who looks after the land
went to sleep last night and he died

adios to the farm in the morning
all the roads that we made in the mud
we’re leaving a lifetime behind us
a generation of Texas blood
oh we’re raising hell tonight
even if it’s the very last time
so much for the good days

there’s a new bunch of deer in the bottom
I promised to my daughters and sons
I don’t how I can make up the memories
but i’ll never stop til I’m done
I don’t know what time we gotta leave tomorrow
I don’t know what I’m gonna say
it’s too damn hot for a bonfire tonight
but we’re gonna be burning one anyway

we’re selling the farm in the morning
all the bucks and the snakes and the hogs
it’s a life that’s passing from memory
except a couple of sad old songs
oh we’re raising hell tonight
even if it’s the very last time
don’t give up on the good days
