about

Written by Tulsa raised/Nashville based singer-songwriter Erin O’Dowd and Farm Girl Fair co-founder Carol Bauman, “Farm Girl State of Mind” tells the story of an unlikely farm girl rising to the challenges of today’s world. Autobiographical to Bauman, the song serves as the theme song for Farm Girl Fair, a thousands strong arts and maker fair to be held at Bauman’s farm Norman, Oklahoma on Sunday, October 6.

Farm Girl Fair will be open to the public- a magical, down home experience with live music, vendors, and activities for kids and adults! This is its fifth year. For more info please visit www.farmgirlfair.com.

Proceeds of the theme song (and this year’s fair!) will benefit Young Life, a Tulsa-based organization that helps send kids of all incomes to summer camp. Give what you can!

lyrics

The grass is tall
and the animals need feed
But God and John, they are good to me
Oooh-oooh, I’ve got a farm girl state of mind

Working the dirt and a-hauling the hay
Well, she’ll never make it it’s what they say
Oooh-oooh, I’ve got a farm girl state of mind...
I got a farm girl state of mind

Oh the work is hard but the reward is sweet
A long hot day ends under a shady tree
Oooh-oooh, I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.

The garden grows, and the rooster crows
The sun burns on and the stars shoot by
And as the weeks fly past
This love is gonna last...

Well it’s turning fall and the fields need seed
But you my baby are so good to me
Oooh-oooh, I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.
Hey y’all
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.

Oh the season’s long
but harvest brings me peace
Holding your hand and sippin your sweet tea
Ooh-ooh I’ve got a farm girl state of mind

I’ve got a farm girl state of mind
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind
Hey hey
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind
Ooh-ooh
I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.

I’ve got a farm girl state of mind.
