Many thanks to everyone who voted for me on this months SongRamp AOM, and a big thanks to those who nominated me in the first place. Hope you enjoy this song that I co wrote with Brad a while ago. I think he may have posted it before, but I wanted to share it with some of my other songs.
If you’ve heard it before, no need to leave a comment; but if you haven’t I’d love to hear what you think…it’s a tribute song to all the hardworking farmers in our country and expresses the importance of their passing on their love of farming down from one generation to the next. Thanks for giving it a listen, Carolyn
