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"

Verse 2

  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 3

  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.

  You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high

  Where corn don't grow
