Swan Road Farm

Time moves on, the years unwind ...

Swan Road Farm - Original Cut

So ... Gracie wasn't a fan of the music on the original cut and suggested some ... alternatives. These are for Gracie!

**"Swan Road Farm"** 

*(Verse 1)* 

Eighty acres stretched beneath the sky, 

Swan Road Farm where summers never died, 

Pemberville, Ohio, in the ‘60s glow, 

A kid with dreams and fields to roam, I’d go. 


Barn stood tall, the cows would call, 

Grandma’s bread rose fresh each dawn, 

Sweet corn shucked on the porch at night, 

Memories golden in the fading light. 


*(Chorus)* 

Oh, Swan Road Farm, where my heart still stays, 

Cousins laughing in those endless days, 

Grandpa’s gone, Grandma’s gone, the farm’s been sold, 

How I miss those summers, young and bold. 


*(Verse 2)* 

Field corn swayed, soybeans grew, 

Grandpa’s tractor cut the morning dew, 

Phil and Laura, we’d run so free, 

Bowling Green trips, just us three. 


The air was thick with earth and love, 

A simple life I’m dreaming of, 

Porch swings creaked, the stories flowed, 

Swan Road held me down that old dirt road. 


*(Chorus)* 

Oh, Swan Road Farm, where my heart still stays, 

Cousins laughing in those endless days, 

Grandpa’s gone, Grandma’s gone, the farm’s been sold, 

How I miss those summers, young and bold. 


*(Bridge)* 

Time moves on, the years unwind, 

But that farm’s still locked in this heart of mine, 

Every loaf, every ear, every blade of green, 

Echoes of a world that’s only in my dreams. 


*(Chorus)* 

Oh, Swan Road Farm, where my heart still stays, 

Cousins laughing in those endless days, 

Grandpa’s gone, Grandma’s gone, the farm’s been sold, 

How I miss those summers, young and bold. 


*(Outro)* 

Swan Road Farm, down that quiet lane, 

Eighty acres call me back again, 

Through the ‘70s haze, I still can see, 

The boy I was, and the home that set me free.
