One of the meanings of 朝 is "towards" (i.e. the 朝阳 district in Beijing is in the eastern part of the city, or "towards the sun"). So the phrase means your back is to the sun and your face is pointed down.

In this phrase, the '朝' is a verb that is similar with facing or looking. so ‘朝太阳’ means facing to sun, and '朝黄土' means facing to downearth. Usually , we use this phrase to desrible the the diligence and hardship of tranditional farmer
