[Verse 1]
As Ewe sat on the front porch
Of that oAld grey house where I was born and Eraised
C#mStaring at the dusty fields
AWhere my daddy worked hard every Eday
I C#mthink it kinda hurt him when I said
"ADaddy there's a lot that I don't Eknow
But C#mdon't you ever dream about a Alife
Where corn don't gErow?"
[Verse 2]
EHe just sat there silent
AStaring at his favorite coffee cEup
I saw a C#mstorm of mixed emotion in his eAyes
When he looked Eup
He said "C#mson, I know at your age
It Aseems like this ole world is turnin' Eslow
And you C#mthink you'll find the answer to it Aall
Where corn don't gErow."
[Chorus]
Hard times are C#mreal
There's dusty Afields no matter where you Ego
You may change your C#mmind
'Cause the weeds are Ahigh where corn don't gErow

[Verse 3]
I reEmember feeling guilty
When ADaddy turned and walked back in the Ehouse
I was C#monly 17 back then
But I Athought that I knew more than I know Enow
I can't C#msay he didn't warn me
This Acity life's a hard row to Ehoe
Ain't it C#mfunny how a dream can turn aAround
Where corn don't gErow
[Chorus]
Hard times are C#mreal
There's dusty Afields no matter where you Ego
And you may change your C#mmind
'Cause the weeds are Ahigh where corn don't gErow
You may change your C#mmind
Oh, the weeds are Ahigh where corn don't gErow

I think it kinda 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

A E

Staring at his favorite coffee cup

C#m A

I saw a storm of mixed emotion in his eyes

When he looked up

And you think you'll find the answer to it all

Where corn don't grow."
