Denny Bonewitz - CornFed Boy Lyrics

Let me tell you a story 'bout a small town country boy
Raised in east Wyoming was his mama's pride and joy
He'd get up every morning before the sun would rise
He loved to be out in the fields you could see it in his eyes

Well he never had much money but he always wore a smile
Rocks in his pockets and dirt in his shoes cuz he'd walked that country mile

He's a cornfed boy, Just a cornfed boy
He'd get up every morning put his blue jeans on
Sweat on his brow from dusk til dawn
The sun so hot the ground would crack
But you can't break this ol' boys back!
CornFed Boy
He's a CornFed Boy

One day a banker man said he'd take the farm away
Unless they came up with a crop to get the cash to pay
So he worked out in the fields until his hands bled
It's amazing what a man can do just to keep his family fed

Sometime it would rain and sometimes it would flood
But he had to bring the crops in hard work was in his blood

He's a cornfed boy, Just a cornfed boy
He'd get up every morning put his blue jeans on
Sweat on his brow from dusk til dawn
The sun so hot the ground would crack
But you can't break this ol' boys back!
CornFed Boy
He's a CornFed Boy

They struggled through the pain and fought back the tears
And despite his family's worries... turned out the biggest crop in years

He's a cornfed boy
Just a cornfed boy
Don't you mess with no... cornfed boy!
