[Verse 1]
He wakes before the sun, boots on the floor,
A shadowed man walking through the door.
The fields don’t care, and neither does time,
He’s loyal to the land, but not to the line.
[Prechorus]
His back bends low, but his voice stands tall,
A sinner’s heart, but he’d give it all.
[Chorus]
Our father’s sins, they cut like the plow,
Turning the earth, but we love him somehow.
Not faithful to vows, but faithful to us,
A man of the soil, a man we still trust.
[Verse 2]
He hides his regrets in a whiskey glass,
His words are heavy, but they come to pass.
Mama’s eyes are tired, her prayers are thin,
She’s fighting the weight of our father’s sins.
[Bridge]
The river don’t judge when it carries the load,
The wheels keep turning down a broken road.
He’s torn in pieces, but he still provides,
A storm in his chest, a calm in his stride.
[Chorus]
Our father’s sins, they cut like the plow,
Turning the earth, but we love him somehow.
Not faithful to vows, but faithful to us,
A man of the soil, a man we still trust.
