The Farmer - Who’ll Remember Him

[Verse 1]
Life is just a lonesome road
We all must travel down
And each day brings us closer to the end
The average man who walks this road
Makes no lasting mark
And leaves no tracks to show where he has been

[Verse 2]
The farmer spends his lifetime
Working with the land
To feed and clothe the nation that he loves
But he almost goes unnoticed
In this busy world today
But he's a man that we should be proud of

[Chorus]
You won't see his likeness carved in stone
Just a simple marker's all there'll be
His closest friends and nearest kin
Will miss him when he's gone
When they forget, who'll remember him?

[Verse 3]
You'll find him in the wheat fields
Of our great midwestern states
Or picking cotton somewhere in the South
But a working man with calloused hands
Is just another name
So when he's gone, who'll remember him?

[Chorus]
You won't see his likeness carved in stone
Just a simple marker's all there'll be
His closest friends and nearest kin
Will miss him when he's gone
When they forget, who'll remember him?
When they forget, who'll remember him?
