Used to think Saturdays were for watching cartoons and going fishing; then life happened.
Lyrics
Hit That Floor A Running ©2003 James Odle, Jr. / Susie Marshall Me and little brother sleeping in on a sunny, summer morn Daddy busted into our room without any warning "I've been up since first daylight up and at 'em sleepy heads this farm won't run itself." and as he walked away he said.... The cows need milking Chickens need feeding The garden needs weeding The rows need seeding We got fields need tending Fences need mending And if you think I'm funning You better hit that floor a running Daddy had us on the tractor by the tender age of seven spent our childhood working daddy's little piece of Heaven now I'm grown and married with two kids of my own I sound just like him at the break of every dawn (repeat chorus) I remember when we laid dad down by mama's side some folks say it rained that day I say this old farm cried Dad told me and little brother to keep this farm alive as the sun comes up over the fields of grain I can still hear him saying (repeat chorus)
