Half a man lyrics

I can chop wood from dusk till dawn

I can swing a hammer till the daylight's gone

I can build a barn, I can make a home with these two hands

But if I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

I can fly a plane up in the big blue sky

Blaze a trail through the woods in my four-wheel drive

With a team of horses or an old John Deere, I can plough this land

But if I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

I can hang the stars, I can rope the moon

Walk across Texas in these cowboy boots

I can run a train till it runs out of track

With the weight of the world laid across my back

My life still wouldn't be worth a damn

If I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

I can build a fire with nothin' but a stick

If I put my mind to it, there ain't much I can't fix

I can read an' count, I can figure things out if you give me a chance

But if I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

I can hang the stars, I can rope the moon

Walk across Texas in these cowboy boots

I can run a train till it runs out of track

With the weight of the world laid across my back

An' my life still wouldn't be worth a damn

If I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

Whoa, I can hang the stars, I can rope the moon

Walk across Texas in these cowboy boots

I can run a train till it runs out of track

With the weight of the world laid across my back

(Across my back.)

But my life still wouldn't be worth a damn

If I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

If I didn't have all your love, I'd be half a man

Ah ha

Whoa, yeah

Mmm, mm, mm...
