Happy Birthday Dan Fakhoury


Down by the red dirt lane

Dan starts up that tractor again

Mud on the tires, grin on his face

Work boots tapping, easy pace

Groundhogs run when they hear that roar

Beavers blink and head for shore


Hey now, clap that beat

Boots on the boards, stomp your feet

One more year, look at him go

Raise that cup and let it show


Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(hey!) Dan Fakhoury day, stomp and sway

Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(ho!) From the barnyard all the way


He cuts a path through hay and dust

Keeps that old farm running just

Laughs at trouble, winks at rain

Turns a hard day into a game

If a groundhog peeks by the fence

Dan gives him the old "get gone" sense


Hey now, clap that beat

Boots on the boards, stomp your feet

One more year, look at him go

Raise that cup and let it show


Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(hey!) Dan Fakhoury day, stomp and sway

Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(ho!) From the barnyard all the way


To the beavers on the creek

To the critters gone by dawn

Dan keeps smiling through it all

Like a song that just rolls on

One more cheer, one more grin

Let that birthday fun roll in


Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(hey!) Dan Fakhoury day, stomp and sway

Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(ho!) From the barnyard all the way

Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(hey!) Tractor king and farmyard saint

Dan Fakhoury day, Dan Fakhoury day

(ho!) C’mon, Dan, make your cake
