Raised in a holler Down the dusty road Faith is above me Set in so bold Barely a stitch Ragged and worn No shoes no matter Sad faced and scorn Bread and a morsel Pa in the field Keep food on the table Passing the meal Keeping us strong Family of eight Ma is the concrete Loving no hate Chores do we plenty Days long for sure Tired but kind Living is pure We are be it simple No complaining or whine Thinking as one Respectful and kind So down in the holler Time moves on slow Poor is our way Family is home

In the Holler
Raised in a holler Down the dusty road Faith is above me Set in so bold Barely a stitch Ragged and worn No shoes no matter Sad faced and scorn Bread and a morsel Pa in the field Keep food on the table Passing the meal Keeping us strong Family of eight Ma is the concrete Loving no hate Chores do we plenty Days long for sure Tired but kind Living is pure We are be it simple No complaining or whine Thinking as one Respectful and kind So down in the holler Time moves on slow Poor is our way Family is home
