Songtekst van George Jones: Where Grass Won't Grow

Where Grass Won't Grow

George Jones & Dolly Parton,
Trisha Yearwood, Emmylou Harris

The dirt was clay an' was the color of the blood in me
A twelve acre farm on a ridge in south Tennessee
We left our sweat all over that land,
Behind a mule we watched grow old,
Row after row
Trying to grow corn an' cotton on ground so poor that grass won't grow

There was one old store in the holler we all called town
It belonged to a gentle old man named Henry Brown
He gave us grits and in the winter time,
So we could live through the cold,
When the winds brought snow
Trying to grow corn an' cotton on ground so poor that grass won't grow

The one I loved walked through those fields with me
A hard workin' woman, true as one could be
But then one year, death was goin' round,
And swiftly took it's toll
Janie had to go
Now she lies asleep 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
And over the ground where Janie lies,
There's a beautiful sight to behold,
And no one knows,
Why there's flowers growin' on ground so poor that grass won't grow
