This Is My Prairie Songtext

von The Corb Lund Band

This is my prairie, this is my home
I'll make my stand here and I'll die alone
They can drill, they can mine o'er my smoldering bones
'Cause this is my prairie, this is my home

The water is poison, my calves are all dead
My children are sick and the aquifer's bled
They want a big pipeline right through Pop's grove
This is my prairie, this is my home

I can't blame the riggers or the guys drivin' truck
For feedin' their families and makin' a buck
But take a close look at the stock that you own
'Cause this is my prairie, this is my home

I don't got the money that lawyers can buy
I don't got my own government's laws on my side
But I got this old rifle that my grand daddy owned
And this is my prairie, this is my home

This is my prairie, this is my home
I'll make my stand here and I'll die alone
They can drill they can mine o'er my moldering bones
'Cause this is my prairie, this is my home
