Man this song has hit home from the first time I heard it. I'll be 6th generation on our property. Dad was going over the will and what is in it. Kept saying x-amount of acres for 8500 a acre. This gun is worth this much and the tractors can get a good price at the auction. I stopped him and said anything you leave me I'll try my hardest to get it to my kids. From the truck to the land to the guns. It's our family's and our legacy. He about cried. I about did to realizing he thought I just wanted to sell. Thank you cody. This song is amazing.
You’re a National treasure and your family is the best of America. Keep the traditions going if you can. They’re priceless values that we’ve lost way too much of.
This video is better than I have ever imagined in my head after hearing the song for the first time months ago. Well worth the wait. Amazing song and a even more amazing video to go along with it.
You sir are what makes America great. I pray that you hold onto all of your property and it’s passed down for generations to come. God bless you and have a wonderful Independence Day.
Me either 😢 I hear this on the radio all day. I knew the video would be like this. Can't see through the tears! Running on about 2 hours sleep doesn't help 😮
I’m now living on land that my Daddy inherited from my granddaddy , I sometimes think of selling it . This song puts a halt to that thought .I have a written will leaving it to my great grand children.
This song made me bawl my eyes out too, what did it for me was when I realized the wife was no longer there, and then he puts his hand on the empty rocker like she’s still there. Yeah and not much sleep doesn’t help, no wonder everything makes me emotional
Just lost my best buddy Gunner (yellow lab) last December. He was 13 years old and a great duck dog. We spent many seasons in a John boat. He’s buried under a cross under an oak tree in my yard. I can’t listen to the song without crying. This hits so close to home.
Bobby -- I know the pain of losing a best friend aka my dog. They are the best, right? Plus, labs are the happiest dogs on the planet! I am truly sorry for the loss of your best buddy, Gunner. The fact that the song hits so close to home tells me Gunner is letting you know he's okay and loves and misses you, too. You will see him again one day. Thanks for being such a great "Dad" to Gunner. Sending prayers for comfort to you, because I understand all to well they are NOT "just a dog". They are our best friends (and mine are my babies). Rest Easy on High, sweet Gunner. Your Daddy loves and misses you so much.
Makes all those duck hunts that much more special. Nobody will ever truly get the connection between a hunting dog and his owner. Makes it all worth it
I get it. My yellow Lab, also named Gunner, got liver cancer at 13. Having him put down, so he didn't suffer, was one of the hardest things I've ever done. He's buried out back, behind the house. A picture of him is still the wallpaper on my phone. He's been gone 6 years. We have other dogs, who I love very much. However, there will only ever be one Gunner in my life. I'm sorry for your loss.
“Keep your money cause a man can’t leave his dog” you damn right!! I lost mine of 15 years last year and that part just hits so hard to me. Miss him every day.
Same I cried unexpectedly first time I heard the song and that part specifically cause my best friends ashes are still in a cedar box on my dresser and I’ve kept his ashes since he died when I was 18 years old (35 now) best dog a boy could ask for 14 years exactly.
@@Grimm1605Gaming I feel ya, I have my boy Bo on my dresser in a memorial box as well. Fifteen years and 15 football seasons watched together, he was my best friend and I’m gonna be getting his paw print tatted on me eventually. I hope you’ve healed well and I will be praying for you so God protects you and holds you up when things feel too hard🙏🙏🙏
The part bout the dog hit hard mine are still alive 3.5 yrs old ..I just hope they got another 10 in them...Plus I'm singing this in our local fair.. Love this song so much . All Cody's stuff hits hard in the feel goods ..😢😊
I a strong woman ugly cried like a baby to this song. The dog was the kick in the ribs for me as well.I lost my girl just over a year ago. She's buried under the prettiest tree in the most beautiful spot on my property. I visit her often. I will never leave my dog. 😢
@@dschneider48 thats because Hollywood and the big labels have told Nashville you got to be woke. You got to bring POP COUNTRY and sing about shit thats not real life. You got to be more worried about having Post Malones & Jelly Belly's on country radio, trying to be mentors to tomorrows kids. I have so many friends that are pro writers in Nashville and they have given up.
The wait is killing me you know it's gonna be epic. Thinking back about when he was asked about the song and his response was that it was written by a songwriter years before about a family member of his own. But he had held onto it until he found the right person to perform the song, and he made one hell of a good choice in who he let perform his song. Couldn't see any other country artist give this song the justice and respect it deserves more than Cody Johnson.
I love Cody Johnson. He's my favorite singer in country music and I also love his Gospel stuff. If you haven't watched the movie Dear Rodeo about that song and his life it is an absolute must!
Couldn’t agree more. He is perfect to give this song the respect it deserves. Fighting right now in my hometown to preserve the farm that my mom and dad built with blood, sweat and tears
Not only farmers, but EVERYbody who owns ANY property. So many "Mom & Pop" businesses going down this road, almost overnight. Traditions lost to, commercialism. (This popped up playing after I googled "Daddy Had a Truck", which I heard on a FB reel today for the first time. This made me tear up tonight. I just buried my cat, "Buddy", of 20 yrs about two mos ago. Unfortunately I don't own any land, but whenever/wherever I go, he's coming with me).
I can't stop the tears from flowing. 😭😭😭🤧 Such a beautiful video between him carrying his dog and remembering his wife. If CoJo doesn't win Video of the Year for this, it's a travesty.
"Keep your money cuz a man can't leave his dog" That hit hard. We live on an 89 acre farm and had to bury 2 of our precious dogs beside our big lilac tree. Could never leave them. People just don't understand generations of farmers and family.
Like they always say when it come to the awards for any music it’s gotta be rigged because the people you see win usually it’s someone you’ve never heard of or see their stuff played as much as everyone else they’re running against!!
I was once that little girl…the dirt between my toes was far more precious than the diamonds that the future gave. We stood back and watched that dirt get signed away when cancer took dad in just 26 days. Even as an adult watching it go, I saw and heard daddy saying “come on inside, it’s getting dark, sis. And you look tired”. That dirt filled several acres of land…we built our home with our own hands. Saying goodbye crushed our hearts…but not as much as losing him ripped our world apart I still have some of that dirt in a jar, a few rocks and some grass that has withered away. But the price for that jar is far greater than gold. And the memories we shared I will forever hold. Thanks, CoJo for keeping it real! For a reminder that hurt don’t always heal. To let ya know that money is nothing compared to a house built on dirt and filled with lovin’
Nobody will ever top the king of country…. But this guys about as close as anyone’s going to get, for years we’ve waited for that one person to get close to it….Cody Johnson is here guys
This one is getting me so bad right now as I just had to say goodbye to one of my dogs yesterday. The rest of the animals we have lost while we’ve lived on our 65 acres are buried in the back of our property.
We judt had to put our very much loved Roxy down. I know what you mean, we miss her so much. She had a good long life. It hurts so much. And where his best friend is buried. I lost my best friend, he just turned 40.
I don’t think I’ve ever cried to a music video in my entire life but this Cody was a master piece thank you and you give me a new perspective on things so thank you to all the farmers and ranchers out there for what you do
As a farmer, this song almost made me weep. Land is one of God’s most precious creations, and He left it up to us to give it all the Tender Loving Care in the world and save it for future generations. Thank you, Josh Phillips for writing this beautiful song, and thank you, Cody Johnson for recording it.
Amen! Plus I love the daughter walking up and telling the men to leave. Proof that he raised a great daughter who only cares about her Dad's happiness and could care less about the $$$.
Good money isn't better than good land. We need farms here in the states still. Not to get political but big agro has to change because it's killing our agriculture
Living this right now. They want to come take our land. It's not a lot of land but it's ours. Been here 40 years and raised my family here, dogs and a few other critters buried here...I just sit and listen to this and see my memories.. Thanks for making a song that means something.
My husband used to talk about sitting on the porch rocking and watching our grandchildren. He never got to see his youngest go past second grade. This song makes me think of that. Thank you Cody.
I believe this song really hits home for thousands of people. We are farmers in Arkansas and just the thought of someone trying to buy the memories and blood sweat and tears poured into this land pulls on my heart strings. God has truly blessed you, your family, listeners connecting through your music and what you stand for. Thank you for this beautiful song. If you ate today Thank a Farmer, Truckdriver, and a Veteran!
Living on a farm where my husband was. Raised after he became sick and unable to keep it up. We had. to relocate this song depicts his feelings. Some times we. Have no choice due to health . Comfort of situation 😢 He lived another 3 yrs this song reminds me of. His feelings so much
My daddy passed away October of 2023 he was my hero my everything…I didn’t grow up with the best mom after they divorced when I was just two but daddy always made me feel loved,important and he was the best daddy a girl could ask for…He owned 14 acres at the end of a two mile driveway….he built a two bedroom house in hopes to get custody of me….he worked that land until the age of 88 when he just couldn’t anymore..he ended up having to leave the place he’d cherished to come and stay with me,my husband and his grands as we watched him fade away…He loved his place on the side of that mountain…he was so proud..:He made it a home and a place I enjoyed visiting on weekends…He made the best pancakes and he taught me about gardening and the love he shared for animals can’t be matched…His stories were the best!! ❤This song reminds me of him soooo much!!
Your dad is not he's not gone let's just say this, madam. He's always gonna be in your heart and your family's hearts. I can't tell if I lose my parents not sure if I can handle it? however my parents tell me not to cry! 😊
Rip to your daddy I lost my mama back in 2019 over 5 years ago she was really young only 45 I was 20 at the time she passed and I still miss her like she passed away yesterday
What an absolutely beautiful song! Makes you journey back through your life and truly cherish the journey that God has brought you through. It makes you treasure those experiences and people who you loved and valued. Thank you for this song, beloved. ❤️
Cody Johnson, in my opinion, is one of the only true country artists left. Everything he puts out is destined for pure country gold! I would love to see a full on gospel album, and if you need a backup vocalist, I'm available! 👍
I have listened to this more than i can recount, such a memorable song. This is why I love America and its culture, just pure love for family, memories and their home, absolutely legendary. This is what I hope my future family resembles. Respect and love from the U.K.!
the saddening part is, corporate greed has driven land prices so high that people who simply want something to leave to their kids cannot achieve these goals without being in absolute financial distress. risking it all, 24/7, 365. this song is a masterpiece that i don't believe George Strait ever surpassed, in my opinion.
41.38 acres… my brother & I are 4th gen. When the for sale sign went up, everyone cried. Even splitting it between all of us, my parents included, we cannot afford the property taxes. The conservation covenant has saved us this long, but without my elderly grandmothers that just passed’s tax breaks, it can’t anymore. My dad was born & raised & has lived his entire life on this land. He knows nothing else. My grandad & him & his brothers built every home with love on this property. Government is taxing us out. developers interested are looking at building 82 homes on it. We have no option but to cash out & move a state over for some land. & then others judge for “selling out.” This is what’s wrong with America. Dad was born here & had expected to die here. My husband & I expected to raise OUR children on this land. None of it is possible anymore.😭
Oooh UGLY CRYIN’!! This song has hit home from the moment I heard it. This video is beautiful!! Sittin here in the house my Grandad built on what’s left of the land he farmed, with the best good girl buried beneath the crepe Myrtle’s in the yard, these words have never rang any truer “You can’t buy that kinda dirt cheap.”
This song hits home so hard. My dad is a 4th generation farmer and has been approached by the city trying to buy his land to turn it into who knows what. My husband and I will take over his farm in the next few years. We’re raising our boys on the farm and have a third one on the way. Couldn’t ask for a better way of life. I can’t help but cry when I hear this amazing song and to finally see a video to it… ❤❤❤
Son, you keep making songs like this, and you'll have a long, successful career. I'm sitting on the back step looking at my dog and the corn growing right now.
Hello beautiful, I have seen a quite handful of your comment on my post uploaded on my business page, so I decided to create a more private page to appreciate those people whose comments and good wishes encourages me and I hope to bring you guys more... thanks a lot, I feel so honored and blessed to have an amazing fan like you.
Born and raised here in mustang Oklahoma we buried the family dog under the old pecan tree my parents hand planted 30 plus years ago 3 months later my father passed from fighting cancer for over 2 years. One day the house and land will fall into my hands and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to let it go. You can’t buy those kinda memories from me. 🖤🤘🏼
WOW!! So powerful! Really hits home as I am a farmers daughter. My Dad is 88 and still farming!! Hands down best song/video ever!! Thank you Cody Johnson for sharing your with tge world.
Man is this my story, proposed to my wife on my dads farm under an oak tree by the pond right next to where my buddy was buried. Now my little girl runs under those trees is it raining in here or is it me 🥲🤣lord am I blessed
"A man can't leave his dog" Amen to that for sure. R.I.P. Gus 12/21/23. I will never leave you either 🥹 So many things about this song touch my heart with a deep meaning. It's really a wonderful song about life, love, and humanity. I recently laid my best friend to rest beneath a cross under a red oak tree beside another cross where first best buddy is buried. So many things in life are more important than money. I've never cried so much listening to a song before in my life.
Never had a dad or any type of relationship like it.. but when I hear this song makes me want to have all that so I can experience it myself with my own family 😌..someday god will grant it to me 1:57
If you love the LORD you already have a Father who loves you and waiting to give you everything you dreamed of. I didn’t have a good relationship with my dad. I think after mom died I got to know him a bit better. He went downhill last October with Alzheimer’s. I have been keeping a journal. I never thought that little shit would ever melt my heart. I’m here with tears now. I’m gonna go see him in a bit. Sending hugs from Texas. Don’t give up we’re going home soon.
I cried like a baby when I first heard this song. My Pap was so proud of his homestead, and I was raised on it until my uncle sold it out from under him. The worst heartbreak was losing that property.
Always hated my dirt yard till this song. I can’t imagine giving up the land who made me into who I am today. And especially leaving so many loved dogs buried in the yard. 2:18 Broke me 💔
Cody...this song made me realize and understand why my father-in-law will never leave his property...regardless of how old he is or how much work it requires...❤ 👏👏👏
This song is so amazing, but there is something extra special about this video! It just brings the feelings straight to your heart. Major kudos to the video team! I hope it gets nominated for Video of the Year!
Me too. My best buddy who spent 15 years of his life here with us is buried on this land. Several hunting dogs as well. No, we will never leave them as long as we are alive and then our daughter will continue to live here. This dirt, our home, our family, our memories all here.
I remember before my pappy died, he told me all the huntin guns were mine when he left to his just reward, he told me if I ever sold them, he’d never forgive me, I’ve hit hard times since then, and I’ve sold every one I’ve bought since being an adult, but I’d sell my body parts before I’d sell those guns he gave me, and won’t ya know it, I’ve been prospering as of late, made enough money to buy me a nice truck and a good house for me and my kind lady, and I know it’s gods work, but I think my pappy was whispering in his ear, saying “don’t you make that bastard sell my 20 gauge”
I just heard this song for the first time today as I was driving my truck with my two "best friends" in the seat behind me, and this song just brought me to tears. My husband and I are 3rd generation family-land owners in Southern Oregon. We live in my husband's childhood home, which we bought from his mother several years ago (she stayed, living with us until she passed on in 2021). I grew up across the river from my husband. We went through school together, watched the stars on warm, summer nights from atop the roof together, and that roof is also where he proposed to me. We got married up here, raised our 3 kids up here, and our youngest son was born up here. We've been trying to hang onto it, but we are now in our 60's and having mobility issues. Takes a lot to keep our little six acres maintained. Our kids are scattered, and our 10 grandkids with them, and no one is close by anymore to help or take over. So my husband and I are discussing whether to keep trying to hold out for our kids/grandkids/and future great grandkids, or sell, since we can't afford to maintain it anymore, living on our limited pensions. Trouble is, there are so many memories here--our life is here. All of our dogs, cats, parrots, favorite roosters/hens are buried up under the trees in the forest above our home. We can still remember the fun we had as kids making our homemade zipline down our gully, the foundations of the cabin my husband first started to build when he was 16 years old and we had just met, the two old tree houses that his little brother, our three kids, and at least 6 of our 10 grandkids have played in over the decades, etc. This song just perfectly summed up our feelings for our home, and It makes me even more determined to try to find a way to hold on until at least one of our kids or grandkids can come back home and take over. Thank you so much, Cody, for so beautifully bringing this song to life. ❤
Coming from a nobody. Get your family home for one occasion. Get the youngens playing in the yard. Let them enjoy the property and see all it has to offer, the material and memories. Get everyone in the memories. Then, while the kiddos are playing, bring the rest of the family in for the hard talk. One of them out of your big family has to see it's worth more than money. It's not easy, but I believe family will back family. Best of wishes to your family and the disisons.
@houstonwilson4503 Thank you. I appreciate the advice. Two out of our three kids say they want it, but Oregon is not a place where it is easy to get a decent career and make ends meet. Right now, our kids are in the middle of raising 13 through 17- year-olds, and their businesses and careers are in mid-Tennessee, and Utah. The oldest is in Portland with his 17-yr-old daughter, and they love the big city life and have absolutely no interest in moving back to Southern Oregon. Thanks again, though--it is great advice. 🙂
Guy in the yellow shirt & black hat at the beginning of the video is the guy who wrote the song. His name is Josh Phillips. Great dude. Performed beautifully by Cody.
I grieve for the land my siblings connived to keep from me. They succeeded and lost it all. Greed overtook them and stripped them bare. The land my Papa worked so hard for and on, the years my grandmother scrimped to keep it for the grandchildren, gone. Everything a person could ever need was in that land. Wild game, berries, grapes, ice cold clear spring water, spring fed fields for hay or crops, pecan and oak trees abundant. Gone, for a dollar sign. I was the only grandchild that would have never sold it, and the only one that was cut from it. With it went my heart, my sense of family, my belonging somewhere. This song, God Bless You.
Be encouraged in your broken heart. Jesus is coming back soon to take us out of here and we will come back and live in paradise on earth. Coming soon to a planet near you. Keep your chin up, time is running out.
This song hits so close to my heart. I tear up every time i listen to it. I came from a broken home where family just wasn't close like they should be. The day i bought my place, my little girl was sitting right next to me.. I travel for work and i am rarely home, so i don't get to see my daughter as much as i want to.. But several times when we have been together and riding around in my truck...this song would come on and she would just reach over and grab my hand...and through the tears, we would sing this together. She knows that i would never sell my place and that she has a house and some land to raise her kids if she wants. Thank you Cody, for all the songs you have ever put out! Especially the ones that my little girl and i sing together! ❤🙏
This song is so perfect. The love of a father combined with the reminder to cherish what we have while we have it. CoJo is truly what country music needs.
This one always gets to me nephew, I love it. You come a long way from being a boss man. I preciate the life you have given my favorite neice. Love you boy.
God bless you Cody Johnson for the message you are putting out. My husband and I are working so hard on leaving legacies for our children and the generations after. People just don’t do that anymore. We’re southern country folks and every time we see a beautiful piece of land being turned into a neighborhood it breaks are hearts. We love watching families keep legacies going and generational wealth. America is steering away more and more from this. Keep on putting out your message brother. This is what we all need to hear and be reminded of.
“And over there under that white oak tree, beneath the cross is where my best buddy’s buried” I was balling my eyes out 😭My dog named Bailey was always there for me and she was the best thing that I had in life…she had been with me before I was even born and my heart shattered because the vet had to put her to sleep because she was really sick, now sometimes I hate living because it’s hard to live with out my best buddy 😞
That's how my sons dog spud was( my in-laws dog) he would lay On my belly when I was pregnant and lay with him after I had him. We had to put him down a month ago
Well this video just broke my dam, I'm crying my eyes out. It doesn't help that it also reminds me of "Up" which I just watched last night again. I'm such a masochist lol.
My dad just sold our land so he could retire. Spent my whole life working and clearing it in hopes to spend time on it with my own family one day.. rip.
Don’t worry Mark, everything happens for a reason, and God still has a plan for you Isaiah 41:10- So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Well I hope wherever you plant your roots with your own family it can be passed down for generations to come after yall are long gone. God Bless and keep the faith💛
For a 32yr old man living in Texas brought me to tears reminds me of my gpa I can’t listen to leather without crying keep up the great work cody love it bud
I can't watch it without tearing up. Unfortunately the people who hold these values true to their heart and soul are becoming fewer and fewer these days. It saddens me to see all the farms sold just in my own area. Those people where the ones who built this country. Let's not forget that!😢❤
That’s so true and were I used to live at I knew everybody there and now I don’t see them anymore and my mom Basically lost or don’t speak to them anymore and the only people that she speaks to now is my granny and my grandma and I don’t even see them that much but I’m going to see them in a couple of days
This song makes me ball my eyes out, man I just love this song so much, it just hits me dead setter in the heart that’s how much I love this song, it is just so special to me

This song healed my heart today. We’re so programmed to just keep buying shit we don’t need. I’ve thought about selling our farm in Mississippi and moving back home to Tennessee (retired military), but never could decide. Now, I know why = heart fixed. Thank you Cody. Thank you.
I am currently living on a farm that has been in my family for almost 105 years. Every time I hear this song it brings me to tears because I was once a little girl with brown hair who made any hard day on the farm for my daddy better.

We have a ranch house on some land and my son, who's 18, said he'd never sell after I'm gone, because his beagles will be buried here. I didn't expect to connect to this song so much... the part about the dog makes me cry every time. 😢
Holy shit the song itself choked me up when he mentioned the dog, but it got me in a chokehold begging it to stop when it showed the guy with the dog in his arms, been there, done that one too many times, I miss those old bird dogs, they were the best
Great tune Cody! I know a family who are 4th generation farmers that will never sell even though because of all the memories made and shared there, you're so right that dirt doesn't come cheap!
Man this song has hit home from the first time I heard it. I'll be 6th generation on our property. Dad was going over the will and what is in it. Kept saying x-amount of acres for 8500 a acre. This gun is worth this much and the tractors can get a good price at the auction. I stopped him and said anything you leave me I'll try my hardest to get it to my kids. From the truck to the land to the guns. It's our family's and our legacy. He about cried. I about did to realizing he thought I just wanted to sell. Thank you cody. This song is amazing.
You keep farming. What ever it takes, you don't back down and you don't give up.
God willing you’ll hold onto it!
You’re a National treasure and your family is the best of America. Keep the traditions going if you can. They’re priceless values that we’ve lost way too much of.
This video is better than I have ever imagined in my head after hearing the song for the first time months ago. Well worth the wait. Amazing song and a even more amazing video to go along with it.
You sir are what makes America great. I pray that you hold onto all of your property and it’s passed down for generations to come. God bless you and have a wonderful Independence Day.
Daughter told them straight up to leave daddy alone. I'm not emotionally stable enough for this video. I just cried my eyes out. So powerful 👏🏼
Me either 😢 I hear this on the radio all day. I knew the video would be like this. Can't see through the tears! Running on about 2 hours sleep doesn't help 😮
I’m now living on land that my Daddy inherited from my granddaddy , I sometimes think of selling it . This song puts a halt to that thought .I have a written will leaving it to my great grand children.
This song made me bawl my eyes out too, what did it for me was when I realized the wife was no longer there, and then he puts his hand on the empty rocker like she’s still there. Yeah and not much sleep doesn’t help, no wonder everything makes me emotional
I’m telling you what… this video was tough
That got me too first time I have seen the video and OMG was it beautiful
Just lost my best buddy Gunner (yellow lab) last December. He was 13 years old and a great duck dog. We spent many seasons in a John boat. He’s buried under a cross under an oak tree in my yard.
I can’t listen to the song without crying. This hits so close to home.
Bobby -- I know the pain of losing a best friend aka my dog. They are the best, right? Plus, labs are the happiest dogs on the planet! I am truly sorry for the loss of your best buddy, Gunner. The fact that the song hits so close to home tells me Gunner is letting you know he's okay and loves and misses you, too. You will see him again one day. Thanks for being such a great "Dad" to Gunner. Sending prayers for comfort to you, because I understand all to well they are NOT "just a dog". They are our best friends (and mine are my babies). Rest Easy on High, sweet Gunner. Your Daddy loves and misses you so much.
Thank you so much. You are very kind.
I Lost her in may great penises she was a great protector she was 8 year's old
Makes all those duck hunts that much more special. Nobody will ever truly get the connection between a hunting dog and his owner. Makes it all worth it
I get it. My yellow Lab, also named Gunner, got liver cancer at 13. Having him put down, so he didn't suffer, was one of the hardest things I've ever done. He's buried out back, behind the house. A picture of him is still the wallpaper on my phone. He's been gone 6 years. We have other dogs, who I love very much. However, there will only ever be one Gunner in my life. I'm sorry for your loss.
This song needs a “viewer discretion” warning for grown men that have a daughter and lost their dog..hot damn 😭
Yea they do
Mix in lost your best friend so can turn that one part into it actually being your friend and your dog . It hit me like a ton of bricks .
The dog part so sad I hate to have a dog pass away
Yep.
Amen. I have a son but a man don’t leave his dog hit dome
“Keep your money cause a man can’t leave his dog” you damn right!! I lost mine of 15 years last year and that part just hits so hard to me. Miss him every day.
Same I cried unexpectedly first time I heard the song and that part specifically cause my best friends ashes are still in a cedar box on my dresser and I’ve kept his ashes since he died when I was 18 years old (35 now) best dog a boy could ask for 14 years exactly.
@@Grimm1605Gaming I feel ya, I have my boy Bo on my dresser in a memorial box as well. Fifteen years and 15 football seasons watched together, he was my best friend and I’m gonna be getting his paw print tatted on me eventually. I hope you’ve healed well and I will be praying for you so God protects you and holds you up when things feel too hard🙏🙏🙏
The part bout the dog hit hard mine are still alive 3.5 yrs old ..I just hope they got another 10 in them...Plus I'm singing this in our local fair.. Love this song so much . All Cody's stuff hits hard in the feel goods ..😢😊
Aww sorry for your loss his soul is in heaven with god now
I a strong woman ugly cried like a baby to this song. The dog was the kick in the ribs for me as well.I lost my girl just over a year ago. She's buried under the prettiest tree in the most beautiful spot on my property. I visit her often. I will never leave my dog. 😢
This is real country music. Tells a real story. Wow
Sure is, that is why my radio is un the permanent off position collecting dust
Absolutely! They haven't made a song like this in years
@@dschneider48 thats because Hollywood and the big labels have told Nashville you got to be woke. You got to bring POP COUNTRY and sing about shit thats not real life. You got to be more worried about having Post Malones & Jelly Belly's on country radio, trying to be mentors to tomorrows kids. I have so many friends that are pro writers in Nashville and they have given up.
Yes sir same as rancheras 👍 🤙
Aman to that ❤😢
The wait is killing me you know it's gonna be epic. Thinking back about when he was asked about the song and his response was that it was written by a songwriter years before about a family member of his own. But he had held onto it until he found the right person to perform the song, and he made one hell of a good choice in who he let perform his song. Couldn't see any other country artist give this song the justice and respect it deserves more than Cody Johnson.
Fr Fr
I love Cody Johnson. He's my favorite singer in country music and I also love his Gospel stuff. If you haven't watched the movie Dear Rodeo about that song and his life it is an absolute must!
Couldn’t agree more. He is perfect to give this song the respect it deserves. Fighting right now in my hometown to preserve the farm that my mom and dad built with blood, sweat and tears
I love you cojo this is sooo good I was tearing up!!! It’s so good! You’re such a good singer and songwriter cojo! Literally my favorite

Not only farmers, but EVERYbody who owns ANY property. So many "Mom & Pop" businesses going down this road, almost overnight. Traditions lost to, commercialism. (This popped up playing after I googled "Daddy Had a Truck", which I heard on a FB reel today for the first time. This made me tear up tonight. I just buried my cat, "Buddy", of 20 yrs about two mos ago. Unfortunately I don't own any land, but whenever/wherever I go, he's coming with me).
@Bettie Thank you for the cheers and incredible love. How are you today?
I can't stop the tears from flowing. 😭😭😭🤧 Such a beautiful video between him carrying his dog and remembering his wife. If CoJo doesn't win Video of the Year for this, it's a travesty.
@@ginas9391 song of the year
I agree with you
I agree with you
"Keep your money cuz a man can't leave his dog"
That hit hard. We live on an 89 acre farm and had to bury 2 of our precious dogs beside our big lilac tree. Could never leave them. People just don't understand generations of farmers and family.
Like they always say when it come to the awards for any music it’s gotta be rigged because the people you see win usually it’s someone you’ve never heard of or see their stuff played as much as everyone else they’re running against!!
I was once that little girl…the dirt between my toes was far more precious than the diamonds that the future gave. We stood back and watched that dirt get signed away when cancer took dad in just 26 days. Even as an adult watching it go, I saw and heard daddy saying “come on inside, it’s getting dark, sis. And you look tired”.
That dirt filled several acres of land…we built our home with our own hands. Saying goodbye crushed our hearts…but not as much as losing him ripped our world apart
I still have some of that dirt in a jar, a few rocks and some grass that has withered away. But the price for that jar is far greater than gold. And the memories we shared I will forever hold.
Thanks, CoJo for keeping it real! For a reminder that hurt don’t always heal. To let ya know that money is nothing compared to a house built on dirt and filled with lovin’
Beautifully written! Thank you for sharing and god bless
😭😭😭😭
a whole song within itself ❤
💙💙💙
Thank you for sharing such a beautifully written account
I cried and held my wife for 10 minutes after watching this...
Be thankful to God everyday for what you have!!!
Thats 😊Cody Johnson in the yellow t-shi ?t right

Everytime someone like this comment and I’ll watch it again.
Who is cutting onions? LOL
Yup
Time for another listen 😄

I can’t stop crying. Fifth generation and no one will take this farm! We lost our corn crop to drought but praying for the cotton. ❤ farm life
So sorry, brother. I pray, too, that your cotton is a bumper. Help is on the way ... Jesus is coming soon to take us out of here. God bless.
Amen, praying with you and yours. 💯
Praying for you. May God bless your future.
Praying ma'am
Praying for your cotton ❤
The line "A man can't leave his dog" tears me up so much. Makes me think of the time I'll have to say goodbye to my two dogs 😢😢
The lines about the dog absolutely destroy me
I know I have already had to tell one good bye
This one is getting me so bad right now as I just had to say goodbye to one of my dogs yesterday. The rest of the animals we have lost while we’ve lived on our 65 acres are buried in the back of our property.
It really is tough. I had to say goodbye to 5 dogs in my life, all lived long lives. I wouldn't leave them either 😥
We judt had to put our very much loved Roxy down. I know what you mean, we miss her so much. She had a good long life. It hurts so much. And where his best friend is buried. I lost my best friend, he just turned 40.
Never fails to make me completely sob… I grew up on a dairy farm I miss it so much.
I don’t think I’ve ever cried to a music video in my entire life but this Cody was a master piece thank you and you give me a new perspective on things so thank you to all the farmers and ranchers out there for what you do
Me too.
Another music video that will make you cry is Bench Seat by Chase Rice such a good song and video
This video definitely made me cry, but the Bench Seat video destroyed me
This song makes me cry like a baby.
Same😢
Every time
Same!
Me too! ❤😢
I was bawling during his ACM performance too 🥹
As a farmer, this song almost made me weep. Land is one of God’s most precious creations, and He left it up to us to give it all the Tender Loving Care in the world and save it for future generations. Thank you, Josh Phillips for writing this beautiful song, and thank you, Cody Johnson for recording it.
this is how county music should be
@Rachel Thank you for the cheers and incredible love. How are you today?
Somehow real country is on the radio
I want the old people to sing now like hank Willam jr
I know so true
Absolutely this is real country
Folks this video is a lesson in life. Good money will never outweigh good memories.
Amen! Plus I love the daughter walking up and telling the men to leave. Proof that he raised a great daughter who only cares about her Dad's happiness and could care less about the $$$.
AMEN!!
Good money isn't better than good land. We need farms here in the states still. Not to get political but big agro has to change because it's killing our agriculture
Never! Augusta, GA on the boat fishing will always be home in my heart!
Isn’t this the truth
This is how country music should sound.
It's not just music. These are true stories.
Absolutely!
Amen
Amen to that !! I love Rock music first , but this song hits a gram slam !! 👍
@@jeffreyhortman216 yes
Living this right now. They want to come take our land. It's not a lot of land but it's ours. Been here 40 years and raised my family here, dogs and a few other critters buried here...I just sit and listen to this and see my memories.. Thanks for making a song that means something.
Don't let them
Sending prayers that they don't get your land, Debbie. 🙏
I just send out a Prayer Request to all of my friends that "they" don't get your land. I believe in prayer so I hope it helps. Take care.
Sending prayers !!
Fight for your land brother. They just took 100 acres of my families: been in the family for 150 years.
My husband used to talk about sitting on the porch rocking and watching our grandchildren. He never got to see his youngest go past second grade. This song makes me think of that. Thank you Cody.
@Dana I'm honored to have the kind of support you show me. How are you doing today?
I believe this song really hits home for thousands of people. We are farmers in Arkansas and just the thought of someone trying to buy the memories and blood sweat and tears poured into this land pulls on my heart strings. God has truly blessed you, your family, listeners connecting through your music and what you stand for. Thank you for this beautiful song. If you ate today Thank a Farmer, Truckdriver, and a Veteran!
Well said!!
Living on a farm where my husband was. Raised after he became sick and unable to keep it up. We had. to relocate this song depicts his feelings. Some times we. Have no choice due to health . Comfort of situation 😢
He lived another 3 yrs this song reminds me of. His feelings so much
😢
To all the farmers and ranchers, praying for you all!❤️
Thanks
Thank you
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏
To anybody frfr
Thank you
My daddy passed away October of 2023 he was my hero my everything…I didn’t grow up with the best mom after they divorced when I was just two but daddy always made me feel loved,important and he was the best daddy a girl could ask for…He owned 14 acres at the end of a two mile driveway….he built a two bedroom house in hopes to get custody of me….he worked that land until the age of 88 when he just couldn’t anymore..he ended up having to leave the place he’d cherished to come and stay with me,my husband and his grands as we watched him fade away…He loved his place on the side of that mountain…he was so proud..:He made it a home and a place I enjoyed visiting on weekends…He made the best pancakes and he taught me about gardening and the love he shared for animals can’t be matched…His stories were the best!! ❤This song reminds me of him soooo much!!
Your daddy sounds wonderful! My condolences.
You were so blessed to have a daddy that loved you with all his heart, what a great man he had to be. May the memories carry you on....
Your dad is not he's not gone let's just say this, madam. He's always gonna be in your heart and your family's hearts.
I can't tell if I lose my parents not sure if I can handle it? however my parents tell me not to cry! 😊
I lost my dad Oct 26th 2023 😢. I held his hand as he took his last breath. I understand every word you just wrote ❤
Rip to your daddy I lost my mama back in 2019 over 5 years ago she was really young only 45 I was 20 at the time she passed and I still miss her like she passed away yesterday
What an absolutely beautiful song! Makes you journey back through your life and truly cherish the journey that God has brought you through. It makes you treasure those experiences and people who you loved and valued. Thank you for this song, beloved. ❤️
I’m not a farmer or rancher, nor if I lived in a place for multiple generations of my family, but goddamn this song made me cry
Perhaps because, like me, it makes us wish we had.
Please don’t use the good Lord’s name in vain. I understand what you’re talking about. We’re all trying to get to the other side.
Cody Johnson, in my opinion, is one of the only true country artists left. Everything he puts out is destined for pure country gold! I would love to see a full on gospel album, and if you need a backup vocalist, I'm available! 👍
You are correct. Keeping the country alive
Him and Zach Top!
2 right
Him and Parker McCollum!
Him and Larry Fleet
I have listened to this more than i can recount, such a memorable song. This is why I love America and its culture, just pure love for family, memories and their home, absolutely legendary. This is what I hope my future family resembles. Respect and love from the U.K.!
the saddening part is, corporate greed has driven land prices so high that people who simply want something to leave to their kids cannot achieve these goals without being in absolute financial distress. risking it all, 24/7, 365. this song is a masterpiece that i don't believe George Strait ever surpassed, in my opinion.
Agreed. Tragic
41.38 acres… my brother & I are 4th gen. When the for sale sign went up, everyone cried. Even splitting it between all of us, my parents included, we cannot afford the property taxes. The conservation covenant has saved us this long, but without my elderly grandmothers that just passed’s tax breaks, it can’t anymore. My dad was born & raised & has lived his entire life on this land. He knows nothing else. My grandad & him & his brothers built every home with love on this property. Government is taxing us out. developers interested are looking at building 82 homes on it. We have no option but to cash out & move a state over for some land. & then others judge for “selling out.” This is what’s wrong with America. Dad was born here & had expected to die here. My husband & I expected to raise OUR children on this land. None of it is possible anymore.😭
@@jadeebrown1221 I’m sorry you’re going through that. Taxes need to cease.
@@jadeebrown1221 explore putting it in a trust.
When that gentleman looked over and his wife wasn't in the chair, I almost started to cry. 😭
Almost?!?
@@ZacksFrontier, I would love to know love like that 🙏
Yes . I totally relate!
Thanks for the memories ❤
Almost, really. I'm balling.
Oooh UGLY CRYIN’!! This song has hit home from the moment I heard it. This video is beautiful!! Sittin here in the house my Grandad built on what’s left of the land he farmed, with the best good girl buried beneath the crepe Myrtle’s in the yard, these words have never rang any truer “You can’t buy that kinda dirt cheap.”
Yep!
❤❤❤❤
No other video this year evokes the kind of deep emotion this one does. Should have won Music Video of the Year, hands down.
Cody johnson is bringing back real country! Texas baby 🤟
I have land and I just buried my dog of 13 years today. I heard this song for the first time today on the radio. I've never cried this much.
So sorry. Find Jesus and get your dog back. Better worlds, better times are coming; but Jesus is the only way.
I’m so sorry 😢. I had my Sandy 17 1/2 years. She’s been gone almost 10 years and I still MISS her everyday.
This song hits home so hard. My dad is a 4th generation farmer and has been approached by the city trying to buy his land to turn it into who knows what. My husband and I will take over his farm in the next few years. We’re raising our boys on the farm and have a third one on the way. Couldn’t ask for a better way of life. I can’t help but cry when I hear this amazing song and to finally see a video to it… ❤❤❤
Mr. Cody Johnson you've done it again and again, never change your sound, this is a song that I replay everyday, thank you for this sir.
Son, you keep making songs like this, and you'll have a long, successful career. I'm sitting on the back step looking at my dog and the corn growing right now.
Hello beautiful, I have seen a quite handful of your comment on my post uploaded on my business page, so I decided to create a more private page to appreciate those people whose comments and good wishes encourages me and I hope to bring you guys more... thanks a lot, I feel so honored and blessed to have an amazing fan like you.
Epic song/video. Sadly too many people don't know this feeling about a good home... even sadder many people had it and lost it.
Born and raised here in mustang Oklahoma we buried the family dog under the old pecan tree my parents hand planted 30 plus years ago 3 months later my father passed from fighting cancer for over 2 years. One day the house and land will fall into my hands and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to let it go. You can’t buy those kinda memories from me. 🖤🤘🏼
Amen. Don't leave that land ... don't leave this world without Jesus.
Very moving!! Full of emotional Love vibes.
Every now and then a real, true country artist releases a real, country song. This is one. Keep em coming Cody. 🇺🇸
he didn't write the song, but he damn sure made the lyrics come to life!!
This is the most POWERFUL song I've heard in a long long time.
WOW!! So powerful!
Really hits home as I am a farmers daughter. My Dad is 88 and still farming!!
Hands down best song/video ever!! Thank you Cody Johnson for sharing your with tge world.
i lisin to this every day!!!!!! i love it co jo
Love that line it's not something you fall into but something God gives you .
Man is this my story, proposed to my wife on my dads farm under an oak tree by the pond right next to where my buddy was buried. Now my little girl runs under those trees is it raining in here or is it me 🥲🤣lord am I blessed
Am I crying at 11:25 on a Friday afternoon over a music video? Yes.. 😭
Im at work feeling the same way!
me too babe
me too
Same here
Same
Love Cody!! Best country singer/artist in the United States right now.. love to see him in concert one day
My favorite Cody Johnson song. Thank you for keeping Country music alive Cody.
ONG if this doesnt win Video of the year LIKE COME ON
I'm only ten years old this where I was raised and I would not trade a thing for it I go out side and bless the lord that I have this land
Thanks 😊 so much for the love and support you have showed me for years now…Are you one of my great fans out there ?
nice to see some singers still keep it country
"A man can't leave his dog"
Amen to that for sure. R.I.P. Gus 12/21/23. I will never leave you either 🥹
So many things about this song touch my heart with a deep meaning. It's really a wonderful song about life, love, and humanity.
I recently laid my best friend to rest beneath a cross under a red oak tree beside another cross where first best buddy is buried.
So many things in life are more important than money.
I've never cried so much listening to a song before in my life.
Never had a dad or any type of relationship like it.. but when I hear this song makes me want to have all that so I can experience it myself with my own family 😌..someday god will grant it to me 1:57
Make your own story have that relationship with your own kids you'll never regret it and yes God will provide that life ❤
If you love the LORD you already have a Father who loves you and waiting to give you everything you dreamed of. I didn’t have a good relationship with my dad. I think after mom died I got to know him a bit better. He went downhill last October with Alzheimer’s. I have been keeping a journal. I never thought that little shit would ever melt my heart. I’m here with tears now. I’m gonna go see him in a bit. Sending hugs from Texas. Don’t give up we’re going home soon.
@@richhess4722I told my cousin be the mom you wish you had to your children. Break the mold.
Agree so much!
I cried like a baby when I first heard this song. My Pap was so proud of his homestead, and I was raised on it until my uncle sold it out from under him. The worst heartbreak was losing that property.
First digit is 540 followed by 541 than 518 and 0
First song I've heard in a very long time that moved me lyrically well done.
Keep the truck till it rusts, the guns forever and the dirt gets passed down!!! Never, ever SELL! God Bless!
Jesus! Awesome reply!👊😁🇺🇸
Always hated my dirt yard till this song. I can’t imagine giving up the land who made me into who I am today. And especially leaving so many loved dogs buried in the yard. 2:18 Broke me 💔
Cody...this song made me realize and understand why my father-in-law will never leave his property...regardless of how old he is or how much work it requires...❤ 👏👏👏
This song is so amazing, but there is something extra special about this video! It just brings the feelings straight to your heart. Major kudos to the video team! I hope it gets nominated for Video of the Year!
When I hear “keep your money because a man can’t leave his dog” I can’t help but tear up a little.
Same!
Same 🥹
Me too. My best buddy who spent 15 years of his life here with us is buried on this land. Several hunting dogs as well. No, we will never leave them as long as we are alive and then our daughter will continue to live here. This dirt, our home, our family, our memories all here.
Me too! Huge dog owner and lover
Same
I remember before my pappy died, he told me all the huntin guns were mine when he left to his just reward, he told me if I ever sold them, he’d never forgive me, I’ve hit hard times since then, and I’ve sold every one I’ve bought since being an adult, but I’d sell my body parts before I’d sell those guns he gave me, and won’t ya know it, I’ve been prospering as of late, made enough money to buy me a nice truck and a good house for me and my kind lady, and I know it’s gods work, but I think my pappy was whispering in his ear, saying “don’t you make that bastard sell my 20 gauge”
Love this.
Love this comment
My poppa passed away this summer i love this song i love u dad
Damn, this is a good comment
Awesome man 👍
I just heard this song for the first time today as I was driving my truck with my two "best friends" in the seat behind me, and this song just brought me to tears.
My husband and I are 3rd generation family-land owners in Southern Oregon.
We live in my husband's childhood home, which we bought from his mother several years ago (she stayed, living with us until she passed on in 2021).
I grew up across the river from my husband. We went through school together, watched the stars on warm, summer nights from atop the roof together, and that roof is also where he proposed to me.
We got married up here, raised our 3 kids up here, and our youngest son was born up here.
We've been trying to hang onto it, but we are now in our 60's and having mobility issues. Takes a lot to keep our little six acres maintained.
Our kids are scattered, and our 10 grandkids with them, and no one is close by anymore to help or take over.
So my husband and I are discussing whether to keep trying to hold out for our kids/grandkids/and future great grandkids, or sell, since we can't afford to maintain it anymore, living on our limited pensions.
Trouble is, there are so many memories here--our life is here. All of our dogs, cats, parrots, favorite roosters/hens are buried up under the trees in the forest above our home. We can still remember the fun we had as kids making our homemade zipline down our gully, the foundations of the cabin my husband first started to build when he was 16 years old and we had just met, the two old tree houses that his little brother, our three kids, and at least 6 of our 10 grandkids have played in over the decades, etc.
This song just perfectly summed up our feelings for our home, and It makes me even more determined to try to find a way to hold on until at least one of our kids or grandkids can come back home and take over.
Thank you so much, Cody, for so beautifully bringing this song to life. ❤
Coming from a nobody. Get your family home for one occasion. Get the youngens playing in the yard. Let them enjoy the property and see all it has to offer, the material and memories. Get everyone in the memories. Then, while the kiddos are playing, bring the rest of the family in for the hard talk. One of them out of your big family has to see it's worth more than money. It's not easy, but I believe family will back family. Best of wishes to your family and the disisons.
@houstonwilson4503 Thank you. I appreciate the advice. Two out of our three kids say they want it, but Oregon is not a place where it is easy to get a decent career and make ends meet. Right now, our kids are in the middle of raising 13 through 17- year-olds, and their businesses and careers are in mid-Tennessee, and Utah. The oldest is in Portland with his 17-yr-old daughter, and they love the big city life and have absolutely no interest in moving back to Southern Oregon.
Thanks again, though--it is great advice. 🙂
Every time I hear this I cry!! Powerful song. Amazing!!
Guy in the yellow shirt & black hat at the beginning of the video is the guy who wrote the song. His name is Josh Phillips. Great dude.
Performed beautifully by Cody.
I grieve for the land my siblings connived to keep from me. They succeeded and lost it all. Greed overtook them and stripped them bare. The land my Papa worked so hard for and on, the years my grandmother scrimped to keep it for the grandchildren, gone. Everything a person could ever need was in that land. Wild game, berries, grapes, ice cold clear spring water, spring fed fields for hay or crops, pecan and oak trees abundant. Gone, for a dollar sign. I was the only grandchild that would have never sold it, and the only one that was cut from it. With it went my heart, my sense of family, my belonging somewhere. This song, God Bless You.
Be encouraged in your broken heart. Jesus is coming back soon to take us out of here and we will come back and live in paradise on earth. Coming soon to a planet near you. Keep your chin up, time is running out.
This is country music brother. God bless you
The dam simply cannot hold at 0:52 - it goes straight to my heart - and then the tears just come. One after the other. 😢
Same here 😢
Same. Every time
Glad it wasnt just me 😢
This song hits so close to my heart. I tear up every time i listen to it. I came from a broken home where family just wasn't close like they should be. The day i bought my place, my little girl was sitting right next to me..
I travel for work and i am rarely home, so i don't get to see my daughter as much as i want to..
But several times when we have been together and riding around in my truck...this song would come on and she would just reach over and grab my hand...and through the tears, we would sing this together.
She knows that i would never sell my place and that she has a house and some land to raise her kids if she wants.
Thank you Cody, for all the songs you have ever put out! Especially the ones that my little girl and i sing together! ❤🙏
This song is so perfect. The love of a father combined with the reminder to cherish what we have while we have it. CoJo is truly what country music needs.
Bless your heart
Keep enjoying good music
This is so touching I cried my eyes out watching this and I felt so connected to it.
My Dad always told us money can’t buy memories ❤ I’m glad you could relate
This one always gets to me nephew, I love it. You come a long way from being a boss man. I preciate the life you have given my favorite neice. Love you boy.
God bless you Cody Johnson for the message you are putting out. My husband and I are working so hard on leaving legacies for our children and the generations after. People just don’t do that anymore. We’re southern country folks and every time we see a beautiful piece of land being turned into a neighborhood it breaks are hearts. We love watching families keep legacies going and generational wealth. America is steering away more and more from this. Keep on putting out your message brother. This is what we all need to hear and be reminded of.
“And over there under that white oak tree, beneath the cross is where my best buddy’s buried” I was balling my eyes out 😭My dog named Bailey was always there for me and she was the best thing that I had in life…she had been with me before I was even born and my heart shattered because the vet had to put her to sleep because she was really sick, now sometimes I hate living because it’s hard to live with out my best buddy 😞
That's how my sons dog spud was( my in-laws dog) he would lay On my belly when I was pregnant and lay with him after I had him. We had to put him down a month ago
I’m sorry to hear that. My old dog Ellie died in a similar way and she is buried in our field with a dog paw made out stone. I miss her so much 😭.
gave me the chills love the song it's powerful
Hi beautiful 😂❤
Well this video just broke my dam, I'm crying my eyes out. It doesn't help that it also reminds me of "Up" which I just watched last night again. I'm such a masochist lol.
I started crying when the old man started talking to the other rocker. Wow! Just.... miss this kinda country...
God bless Josh Phillips for writing this song and Cody Johnson for cutting it giving it the audience it deserved. Well done, gentlemen.
My dad just sold our land so he could retire. Spent my whole life working and clearing it in hopes to spend time on it with my own family one day.. rip.
So Sorry!! Pray for a better ending for you!!
Don’t worry Mark, everything happens for a reason, and God still has a plan for you
Isaiah 41:10-
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Sorry for you😢
I’m soo sorry
Well I hope wherever you plant your roots with your own family it can be passed down for generations to come after yall are long gone. God Bless and keep the faith💛
For a 32yr old man living in Texas brought me to tears reminds me of my gpa I can’t listen to leather without crying keep up the great work cody love it bud
Put a full grown man in a puddle of tears. Kudos to you Mr Johnson
I can't watch it without tearing up. Unfortunately the people who hold these values true to their heart and soul are becoming fewer and fewer these days. It saddens me to see all the farms sold just in my own area. Those people where the ones who built this country. Let's not forget that!😢❤
That’s so true and were I used to live at I knew everybody there and now I don’t see them anymore and my mom Basically lost or don’t speak to them anymore and the only people that she speaks to now is my granny and my grandma and I don’t even see them that much but I’m going to see them in a couple of days
This song makes me ball my eyes out, man I just love this song so much, it just hits me dead setter in the heart that’s how much I love this song, it is just so special to me
@Merry I'm honored to have the kind of support you show me. How are you doing today?
I’m a Texan. This song hits home. I’m not on a fancy farm but I’m adopted and Texas is what made me an American. Can’t buy my dirt cheap.
You seem to have a beautiful story to tell honey ❤ well thank you for always supporting okay
❤❤❤

I am so excited for this video. Truly this is my favorite song right now. I put Cody in the same category as George Strait. Love them both.
Cody Johnson, This is one of the best songs that I have ever heard in my entire life and I'm 71 years old. Bruce Gardner Amsterdam, NY
This song healed my heart today. We’re so programmed to just keep buying shit we don’t need. I’ve thought about selling our farm in Mississippi and moving back home to Tennessee (retired military), but never could decide. Now, I know why = heart fixed. Thank you Cody. Thank you.
Thanks man I’m crying on my couch while feeding my daughter breakfast
Love that❤😂
LoL don't feel bad I'm balling in my doctor's office!!😢😢😢
I am currently living on a farm that has been in my family for almost 105 years. Every time I hear this song it brings me to tears because I was once a little girl with brown hair who made any hard day on the farm for my daddy better.
That’s sweet 😊thank you for being a fan

This is gonna be a tear jerker for sure
Oh I'm about to cry like a real man... all high pitched and squeaky
Song already was and the video just made it better
It made me cry like a baby
We have a ranch house on some land and my son, who's 18, said he'd never sell after I'm gone, because his beagles will be buried here. I didn't expect to connect to this song so much... the part about the dog makes me cry every time. 😢
Holy shit the song itself choked me up when he mentioned the dog, but it got me in a chokehold begging it to stop when it showed the guy with the dog in his arms, been there, done that one too many times, I miss those old bird dogs, they were the best
You have a great sense of humor in expressing yourself 😅
Thanks for the support though ❤
Absolutely amazing to hear real country in 2024. 🇺🇲
1:07 what a smile
This song gave me chills. What a great son and lesson. Way to go Cody!
@Amy I'm honored to have the kind of support you show me. How are you doing today?
Man what a damn song! THANK YOU
Great tune Cody! I know a family who are 4th generation farmers that will never sell even though because of all the memories made and shared there, you're so right that dirt doesn't come cheap!
