Dolly Parton - Where Grass Won't Grow (with Goerge Jones, Emmylou Harris And Trish Yearwood - Текст песни

  • текст
Dirt was clay and was the color of the blood in me 
A twelve acre farm on the rich south Tennessee 
We left our sweat all over that land 
Behind a mule we watched go cold 
Trying to grow corn and cotton on ground 
So poor the grass won't grow 
There was one old store in the hot we all called Timmins 
It belonged to a gentle old man named Henry Brown 
He gave us bread and in the winter time 
So we could live through the cold 
When the winds caught snow 
Tryin' to grow corn and cotton on ground 
So poor that grass won't grow 

Oh the woman I loved walked through those fields with me 
She was a hard workin' woman and true as one could be 
Oh but then one year death was goin' round 
And swiftly took it's toll 


Janie had to go 

Now she lies in sleep under ground 
So poor that grass won't grow 

As I stand here looking over this part of Tennessee 
The fields are bare as far as the eye can see 

North, the grains where Janie lies 
There's a beautiful sun to behold 

And no one knows 
Now there's flowers is growin' on ground 
So poor that grass won't grow 

Now there's flower's growin on ground 
So poor that grass won't grow
