It's a smooth sail above oil country I see beautiful horses grazing in the pastures Took me half a day to learn an older tractor A couple fridges are near, chilling beers The bomb-fires at night keep me here The rigs light up the land Like stars in the sky I can hear the machinery buzzing at a distance The crows nest blinks throughout the night Morning comes quick with a bottle I would brag like a role model The peace of it all keeps me here Sometimes i indulge in it How slow everything can be My 2 year old almost three Sleeping in a camper She just loves it here I wonder If I'd ever go back I don't think so I'll close my eyes...Birth sign: Aries
