Ritzville

Growin' tall in Ritzville (Ritzville) Wheat fields wavin' gold so divine Farmers toil with heart and soul Underneath that burnin' summertime (summertime) The train it rolls through town (through town) Carryin' the heart of our land Dust storms dance across the plains (across the plains) But our spirit never wavers, never wanes With sweat and love, the grains we've sown Rising up from the earth we've always known (we've known) [Chorus] Oh, Ritzville, oh Ritzville, in summer's embrace Your golden wheat, our prairie's grace Where the roads roam wide and free (wide and free) Under skies that paint a pastel dawn We're the heartland's sturdy seed Greetin' each day with a stretch and a yawn (and a yawn) The combines hum their tune (their tune) Harvesting 'neath the sun or moon
