    Lyrics
    Miles of flat land that I call home
    Ten generations before me
    Not a drop of water in a long memory
    We’ve still a country to feed

    Woe oooo
    Won’t the water flow?
    My field’s a dust bowl
    Woe oooo
    I’m hanging on to hope
    Ooooooo

    We lost the cattle last summer gone
    Too little feed for winter’s table
    My girl is near her teens she’s never been in new clothin’
    Why aren’t we able?

    Woe oooo
    Won’t the water flow?
    My field’s a dust bowl
    Woe oooo
    I’m hanging on to hope
    Ooooooo

    The family cross the way they gave in yesterday
    Two hundred years ends in foreclosure
    But they’re still plowing soil and seeding the land
    Not believing that it’s over

    Woe oooo
    Won’t the water flow?
    My field’s a dust bowl
    Woe oooo
    I’m hanging on to hope
    Ooooooo
    Ooooooo
    Ooooooo
