We held up fairly well We stayed behind and we gave it hell When the whole world seemed to be burning down We closed in tight and stood our ground You can't take away the land All I've built up with my own two hands I'll dig the line, I'll make a stand Against the grain again Call me crazy, call me desperate This piece of land is what I have left So until the acrid smoke burns my lungs I'll fight it back with everything I've got Sayin' you can't take away the land And all I've built up with my own two hands I'll dig the line, I'll make a stand Against the grain again Forty acres and a childhood dream A place for kids to come and make believe That on a mountain I can stand And take flight across the span Sayin' you can't take away the land And all I've built up with my own two hands I'll dig the line, I'll make a stand Against the grain again Against the grain again And as the flames reached in to take Gold Hill We stayed the night and we drained the well And what this fire takes we'll build again Because you can't take away the land And all I've built up with my own two hands I'll dig the line, I'll make a stand Against the grain again We held up fairly well We stayed behind and we gave it hell When the whole world seemed to be burning down We closed in tight to save our little town
