John
John knows to prune the crepe myrtles Before it is their season Before the weather freezes He blows the pipe lines clean
He worked for the fire department Until his injury Now he puts out the fires For the girl from the city
His family's from these parts Before the white men got there Grows field corn on his lot Keeps the road and dead trees cleared
He leaves a pile of brushwood For me to burn, it burns so pretty
John's work is never done Helping the girl out from the city
His mama goes to the local Baptist church His daddy's buried there His daddy did two tours of duty As a gunner in the war And was the first To greet and treat me like a neighbor
John brings the country to me The girl from the city
もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com John knows that he could make a killing Selling rights to fish the trout To rich city men who come in Grilling and swilling So he'd rather do without Still he opens up the gates for me Atlanta groceries in my SUV
Doesn't take to waste or finery But takes the girl in from the city
His mama goes to the local Baptist churc His daddy's buried there His daddy did two tours of duty As a gunner in the war And was the first To greet and treat me like a neighbor
John brings the country to me The girl from the city
And he kindly tolerates The wanderer in me Who wishes she were from Somewhere she would rather be Planting tender shoots Along a rushing stream Welt everybody has a dream The girl from the city
