Hill Country Home

I was born and raised in Texas In a little hill country home Grew up on the Guadalupe River Just north of San Antone Way out in the middle of nowhere Down an old red gravel road The same house granddaddy lived in 'Til he was ninety eight years old From where I stand, this piece of land Is all I've ever known And for what it's worth, my heaven on earth Is a hill country home Hill country home I've been west of Midland Working on a old pipeline Spent time in Corpus Christi Fishing with a friend of mine I knew a girl in Fort Worth Yea she stole my heart away I love every town I've been around But I knew I'd never stay From where I stand, this piece of land Is all I've ever known And for what it's worth, my heaven on earth Is a hill country home Hill country home Passed down five generations My old man used to say "Your Granddad gave this land to me And it'll be yours, too, someday Don't ever sell one acre Pass everything down the line Leave it in the hands of your little man The same way I did mine From where I stand, this piece of land Is all I've ever known And for what it's worth, my heaven on earth Is a hill country home From where I stand, this piece of land Is all I've ever known And for what it's worth, my heaven on earth Is a hill country home Hill country home Hill country home
