(Verse 1)
Out in the country, where the fields stretch wide,
We keep it simple, got nothin' to hide.
But there's a storm brewin' up, and it's comin' our way,
Gotta put that hoe down, before she gets out of hand today.
We work the land from dawn till dusk,
Got the sweat on our brow, it's a matter of trust.
But there's trouble in the barn, and it's startin' to show,
Better put that hoe down, before she takes control.
(Hook)
Put that hoe down, before she gets out of hand,
We gotta keep it steady, gotta take a stand.
Put that hoe down, don’t let her run wild,
In the heart of the country, we do it with a smile.
(Verse 2)
She’s got a mind of her own, and a spirit so free,
But when she starts actin’ up, gotta listen to me.
We got crops to tend, and cattle to feed,
Can’t let a wild hoe mess with what we need.
There’s a rhythm to this life, a way things are done,
But sometimes you gotta wrangle, before the day is won.
So put that hoe down, and let’s get back to work,
In the fields of the country, we don’t let nothin’ shirk.
(Hook)
Put that hoe down, before she gets out of hand,
We gotta keep it steady, gotta take a stand.
Put that hoe down, don’t let her run wild,
In the heart of the country, we do it with a smile.
(Bridge)
From the barn to the pasture, we know how to roll,
With a country beat in our hearts, and a little rock 'n' roll.
We take pride in our work, we take pride in our land,
So put that hoe down, take a firm stand.
(Hook)
Put that hoe down, before she gets out of hand,
We gotta keep it steady, gotta take a stand.
Put that hoe down, don’t let her run wild,
In the heart of the country, we do it with a smile.
(Outro)
So next time you’re out here, under the open sky,
Remember these words, and don’t ask why.
Put that hoe down, keep your feet on the ground,
In the country life we live, we keep it safe and sound.
