New Lane Road - Josh Kelley
Take me down to new lane road
Effort into the river slow
Where the sun is warm the fields are gold
Take me down to new lane road
Take me where I caught her eye
On blankets under mountain skies
Where the trees whisper when winter blows
Take me down to new lane road
This is my home
This is my life
Oh I've read the bill of rights
And all the stories of the proud who've died from me and you
These are my kids
And this is my wife
I put up a forty every time I raise my stars under the red
The white the beautiful blues
Yeah we are the rivers carved of melted snow
Take me down to new lane road
We are the wild
We are the free
We are the earth beneath our feet
We take our time
We do it right
And we never back down without a fight
This is my home
This is my life
Oh I've read the bill of rights
And all the stories of the proud who've died from me and you
These are my kids
And this is my wife
I put up a forty every time I raise my stars under the red
The white the beautiful blues
Yeah we are the rivers carved of melted snow
Oh take me down to new lane road
We would take care of the earth
The earth is the protector of us
I would as a kid go with him on the tractor
And he'd be plowing the field
He'd be digging up fresh dirt and there's this
There's this this distinctive smell to of this rich dirt
You know he'd point out to me what was good dirt
And what was bad dirt
And he would always say
You'd basically get out of mother nature what you put back in
Remember if you're going to kill the soil
You got to give something back
This is my home
This is my life
Oh I've read the bill of rights
And all the stories of the proud who've died from me and you
These are my kids
And this is my wife
I put up a forty every time I raise my stars under the red
The white the beautiful blues
Yeah we are the rivers carved of melted snow
Take me down to new lane road
Take me down to new lane road
Take me down to new land road
