Verse 1
I signed my name in blue inkOn a table by the glassCounted out the hard yearsThen I let them passForty acres in my pocketOn a folded-up deedI held that paper like a prayerLike a thing I really need
Pre-Chorus
Pulled that truck through the gateDust rolled off the tiresI looked out over rows of landAnd felt my chest catch fireNo landlord on my shoulderNo hand around the chainJust earth, fence post, and sunlightAnd my own last name
Chorus
Forty acres and a front porchForty acres, mineI can see my children runningCutting through the thymeForty acres and a front porchCoffee in the dawnWhole place paid forNothing hanging on(Whole place paid for)(Nothing hanging on)
Verse 2
Little boots on the pastureChasing each other wildScreaming at the horsesLaughing like a childI planted peach trees by the creekSet a swing from the oakBuilt that porch with my own two handsEvery board got spoke
Pre-Chorus
Pulled that truck through the gateDust rolled off the tiresI looked out over rows of landAnd felt my chest catch fireNo landlord on my shoulderNo hand around the chainJust earth, fence post, and sunlightAnd my own last name
Chorus
Forty acres and a front porchForty acres, mineI can see my children runningCutting through the thymeForty acres and a front porchCoffee in the dawnWhole place paid forNothing hanging on(Whole place paid for)(Nothing hanging on)
Bridge
Now the rain can talk to meOn that old tin roofI’ve been broke and I’ve been chasedI know the hard truthBut I got this patch of groundAnd I got time to growGot a name on every mailboxAnd a heart that finally knows
Chorus
Forty acres and a front porchForty acres, mineI can see my children runningCutting through the thymeForty acres and a front porchCoffee in the dawnWhole place paid forNothing hanging on(Whole place paid for)(Nothing hanging on)
