          C    G                  C
I know my part, I'll bring up the rear.

I'll eat the dust, You know, I don't care.
              F                C
That's what I do, I'll get 'em through.
    C           G

VERSE:
               C      G           C
I sing them to sleep, I sing them awake.
             C                   G
They like my songs, I give and I take.
          F                         C
I know my part, I play for love and heart.
        C           G
But I'm driving the herd.

If I'm doing it right, they'll sing-a-long with me every night
