7 Days

Sunflowers shine forever as far as I can see
Im heading home to Kansas now on 7 days of leave
Therell be 14 hour work days on vacation
Keeping this ole farm alive aint no part time occupation

Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddys dad before
Well, it seems like its been forever

Youve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And youre counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So Ill do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands and 7 days

Well, its all youve ever known, so its hard to understand
The sacrifice it takes just to pull something from the land
So Ill keep turning over acres to get em ready for the corn
And I will mend the crumbling fences that I repaired the year before

Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddys dad before
Well, it seems like its been forever

Youve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And youre counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So Ill do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands, and 7 days

When I doubt what difference
I can make in 7 days of leave
I remember what the Lord did
With one day less me

Oh, it must be your prayers that lead me
Back here where you need me
To the farm where I was born
Just like your Daddys dad before
Well, it seems like its been forever

Youve been hanging on through
The wind and the weather
And youre counting on the only
Son you ever raised
So Ill do all I can to save this place
One man, two hands, and 7 days
