(Verse) 
D5 C5                                                   D5 
His cows get loose and run right through the fast food parkin lot 
D5 C5                                                         D5 
And Daddy gets calls from the mini-malls when their downwind from his hogs 
              C5                                                  G5 
When his tractor backs up traffic the reception ain't too warm 
    D5 
The citys growin around him 
    G5 
but Daddy won't sell the farm 
      D5 
You cain't roll a rock 
               D5 
up a hill that steep 
    C5                    G5 
you can't pull roots when they deep 
                    D5             C5 
He's gonna live and die in the eye of an urban storm

Daddy won't sell the farm

He raised his corn in a big red barn and a healthly family 
   C5 
He learned to love the woodland 
         G5 
He can't stand to do em harm

Concrete all around him Daddy won't sell the farm

       D5
