Where Corn Don't Grow

歌詞

As we sat on the front porch of that old grey house where I was born and raised Stared out at the dusty fields where daddy always worked hard eveyday I think it kind of hurt him when i said "Daddy there's a lot that I don't know But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow" He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes when he looked up He said "Son I know at your age it feels like this ol' world is turning slow And you think you'll find the answer to it all,where corn don't grow" Hard times are real,there's dusty fields No matter where you go You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high Where corn don't grow I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house I was only seventeen back then but it seems like I knew more than I do now I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe It's funny how a dream can turn around,where corn don't grow Hard times are real,there's dusty fields No matter where you go You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high Where corn don't grow You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high Where corn don't grow
