[Intro]
Sunlight on the barn, a morning clear and bright
Whistles of the river, wings in flight
[Verse 1]
I wake with the roosters, I grin at the dawn
Dirt on my boots, but the heart lives on
Rows of glad daydreams by the ducking pond
Bizard of mud, but we keep marching on
[Pre-Chorus]
Every splash of sunshine makes the hard days fade
Every steady heartbeat builds the future we've made
[Chorus]
My ducks in the sunshine, marching to tomorrow
Proud of the harvest in every squeak and swallow
The hard work pays off, the story's in my hands
Hope for the harvest, and a sky that expands
[Verse 2]
Feathers and feathers, a chorus of quacks
Golden morning markets, the pride in our stacks
Sun-kissed feathers glisten, the weekend toasts
I count my blessings by the eggs I boast
[Pre-Chorus]
Every sunrise whispers, we’re on the right track
Every patient effort lays down the stack
[Chorus]
My ducks in the sunshine, marching to tomorrow
Proud of the harvest in every squeak and swallow
The hard work pays off, the story's in my hands
Hope for the harvest, and a sky that expands
[Bridge]
Across the paddles, the future glows
Little feet in the water, a river that grows
From muddy boots to a table with toast
This life, this land, I love the most
[Chorus]
My ducks in the sunshine, marching to tomorrow
Proud of the harvest in every squeak and swallow
The hard work pays off, the story's in my hands
Hope for the harvest, and a sky that expands
[Outro]
Sunset settles softly, barn lights come on
Duck call lullabies sing the long day’s song
Dreams of tomorrow, bright fields in view
A farmer’s heart, grateful and true
