Waylon Jennings - Where Corn Don't Grow lyrics

[Verse 1] 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" [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Outro] You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high Where corn don't grow
