Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On the hill by the split-rail gate
We learned the code from our granddad's plate
Three laws carved in the pine wood rail
Kept our hands clean, kept our hearts from fail
First one said, land comes first
Treat that dirt like a Sunday verse
[Pre-Chorus]
Second one said, watch your hands
Don't reach past where your brother stands
Third one rang like a church bell tone
If you've got too much, don't keep it alone
[Chorus]
Brothers of the three laws land
(Three laws land)
Land comes first, now understand
(Understand)
Take not what belongs to us
(Belongs to us)
If you have plenty, share what's enough
(Share what's enough)
[Verse 2]
Mama set beans on a dented tin
Fed the neighbor kid when the rains moved in
Old man Harlan lost his truck one spring
We split our hay and the fence-line string
No man rises with a full two hands
When the river cuts through another man's land
[Pre-Chorus]
You can hold tight, but the day turns cold
A closed fist fades and a wide one holds
We were raised where the rows run long
You pull your weight, then you pass it on
[Chorus]
Brothers of the three laws land
(Three laws land)
Land comes first, now understand
(Understand)
Take not what belongs to us
(Belongs to us)
If you have plenty, share what's enough
(Share what's enough)
[Bridge]
I seen a barn roof bow in the storm
Seen a hard boy learn to keep folks warm
One sack of seed can start two fields
One good hand makes the whole world heal
So if my shelf is stacked too high
I set one loaf aside tonight
[Final Chorus]
Brothers of the three laws land
(Three laws land)
Land comes first, now understand
(Understand)
Take not what belongs to us
(Belongs to us)
If you have plenty, share what's enough
(Share what's enough)
Brothers of the three laws land
(Three laws land)
That's the way we make our stand
(Our stand)
