Lyrics:
We get up every morning at the rooster’s crowing
In the country, far from any city
Feeding cattle that we love, wearing our work boots and our gloves
In any weather, whether nasty or pretty
And if we stay on time, we’ll be done with chores by 9
All the cattle lined up nicely in rows
Though we sometimes get annoyed, look at us, we’re self-employed
We love our job and hope that it shows
And we’ll be takin' care of livestock every day
Takin' care of livestock—pitchin’ hay.
We’ve been takin' care of livestock, they’re bovine
Takin' care of livestock and working overtime, work outside
Providing good nutrition is a farmer’s job description
Whether beef, swine, poultry, or dairy
If the animals are sad, well then our profits will be bad
That’s why we give them everything to be merry
Before we go to church, we know our animals come first
Every farmer tells you that’s how it goes
There’s no job we can avoid, that’s part of being self-employed
But we love to work and hope that it shows
And we’ll be takin' care of livestock every day
Takin' care of livestock—pitchin’ hay
We’ve been takin' care of livestock, they’re bovine
Takin' care of livestock and working overtime, work outside
Take good care of your livestock
Every day, Every way
Whoo!
Farmers get up every morning at the rooster’s crowing
To grow the food you put on your table
The beef, milk, turkey, chicken, and of course all of the bacon
Comes from a farm, now that is no fable!
Some think that farming is bland, they don’t seem to understand
Why we’re working so hard to make a living
We think that what we do is fly we help provide the food supply
Family farms should be a cause for thanksgiving!
‘Cause we’ll be takin' care of livestock every day
Takin' care of livestock
We’ve been takin' care of livestock, they’re bovine
Takin' care of livestock and working overtime
Takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock
And we’ll be takin' care of livestock- FFA
Takin' care of livestock—Charolais!
We’ve been takin' care of livestock, at the fair!
Takin' care of livestock, Because you know we care
Takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock
We've been takin' care of livestock
We've been takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock
Takin' care of livestock

These men show how farms work and all the time involved. It's how I was raised and how my family still runs the farms in Atchison Kansas

Farmers & their helpers rock! And they can’t really ‘work from home.’ We appreciate you!

Howdy y'all. Glad to finally find farmers, and ranchers videos that show what we do to care for and provide food to America. The greatest country on Earth. Keep up the great work gentlemen.

Came across this video when listening to BTO. My husband, now deceased, was a cattle and crops farmer and I'm the horse girl! There are no days off, coffee breaks, etc. You guys completely rocked it and he would have loved it. Thank you so much for sharing!

Wonderful job gentlemen and honorary brother (younger sis) as usual!. I had the pleasure of meeting Greg Peterson at a recent convention in Canada and he (and I know) all of his family are as nice, humble, good farmboys who really care as they seem to be on their video!!!  Keep smiling Peterson Bros!!!
