Fields of Wheat, Roads of Dirt

"Fields of Wheat, Roads of Dirt" is a song by Kurt Holes that paints a nostalgic picture of a small-town life deeply rooted in rural traditions. The lyrics evoke images of farmers working the land, ranch hands starting their day at dawn, and families gathering around a fire to share stories and memories. The song emphasizes the slow pace, honest work, and strong community bonds that define this simple life. It acknowledges the passing of time, but reminds listeners of the enduring importance of family, heritage, and the love that binds them to their roots. The repetition of the lines “Fields of wheat and roads of dirt, Simple life with honest work” serves as a powerful refrain, underscoring the core values and enduring beauty of this rural existence.
