Those Fifty Years

We've been through hard times living on the land
But it's the hard times that we understand
There's been laughter and there's been tears
But we came through those fifty years

We saw the boys grow, turn into men
Heard the women say it'll rain again
We sang with joy, quick are the shears
Yeah, we came through those fifty years

Together, together, together for fifty years
Dry weather, cold weather, rainy weather for fifty years

Now there's grandkids and some will go
No guarantees with the seeds you sow
And we will nurture, tell 'em all we know
We'll watch them learn and we'll watch them grow

We've been through hard times living on the land
But it's the hard times that we understand
There's been laughter and there's been tears
But we came through those fifty years
Yes, we came through those fifty years
