[Intro] Yeah, we still out here One step, one mile [Verse 1] Coffee in a chipped cup, morning on the fence Boots by the back door, making every dollar stretch We got a little roof and a table that we share A hand to lend, a laugh to spare, good enough to care The road gets rough, but we don’t call it the end We take what we’ve been given, make a little more again [Pre-Chorus] If the sky turns gray, we keep our eyes ahead Count the good we’ve got, then count the steps we’ll tread [Chorus] I’m thankful for this life, for the dirt beneath my shoes For the miles we’ve made, for the miles we’ve yet to choose Keep a little faith alive, keep working through the hard We’re still reaching for that land, still reaching for our part One day, one fence line, one promise in our hands Happy with the life we’ve got, still dreaming of the land [Verse 2] No silver spoon, just a plan folded up in my coat A few straight rows, a stubborn hope, and an old truck that groans We plant in spring, we wait through heat, we mend what winter takes Every small beginning is a chance that we can make And when my neighbor’s tired, I’ll help him lift the gate ’Cause a future worth the wanting is a future built by faith [Pre-Chorus] If the sky turns gray, we keep our eyes ahead Count the good we’ve got, then count the steps we’ll tread [Chorus] I’m thankful for this life, for the dirt beneath my shoes For the miles we’ve made, for the miles we’ve yet to choose Keep a little faith alive, keep working through the hard We’re still reaching for that land, still reaching for our part One day, one fence line, one promise in our hands Happy with the life we’ve got, still dreaming of the land [Bridge] Maybe it’s a long way, maybe years of rain Still we’ll rise at daylight, put our shoulders to the strain Not waiting on a miracle to tell us who we are We’ve got enough to start with, and the rest is not too far [Final Chorus] I’m thankful for this life, for the dirt beneath my shoes For the miles we’ve made, for the miles we’ve yet to choose Keep a little faith alive, keep working through the hard We’re still reaching for that land, still reaching for our part One day, one fence line, one promise in our hands Happy with the life we’ve got, still dreaming of the land [Outro] One step, one mile Still dreaming of the land
