they won't have me (amy ray band) - amy ray lyrics

[intro]
one, two, three
one more time
one, two, three

[verse 1]
they won’t have me, but i love this place
the rural life is broken and the farmland’s gone to chaff
my hands are idle and my mind needs rest
the toil of the decent and the sleep of the best
i sit in diners with all the old men
and they talk of work ’cause it’s all they ever did
and they gave their hearts to jesus and got serious
and they gave up their drinking and they worked for this
[chorus]
nothing, nothing
and it’s all this love to offer, all this love to waste
all this love to offer, all this love to waste

[instrumental break]

[verse 2]
lame dog on the highway where the old road used to be
you know what divides us is just a difference someone made
some got tired of trying, some were just too scared to stay
we gave ourselves to nothing and we let ’em have their day
who’s gonna do the planting? who’s gonna pray for rain?
who’s gonna keep the farmland from the subdivision man?

[chorus]
nothing, nothing
nothing, nothing
and it’s all this love to offer, all this love to waste
