Dave Dudley - Old Home Place lyrics
(They're selling the homeplace today) Yeah they're sellin' me out today just lost too much money too many years in a row And since pa died I ain't got no help Ma was waitin' for quite some time before she went to join pa And all the rest of the poor souls upstairs now I can't keep my notes so long to stay So they're sellin' that old homeplace lock stock and barrel There's ma's old churn they're sellin' that right now Many hours I'd pass that old rescal see that nail up there on the handle I pinched my finger on that many a time wore some blisters too It's sold oh they're all gone there goes pa's old windup clock Many a night I watched him wind that old clock With a prayer on his lips for a better tomorrow dad's gone so's the old clock And that organ ma played many a Sunday afternnon use to entertain us And company too when they'd come over to us For some good churn music and good time numbers it's sold There's that Sue yeah that's her I called her my first girl friend And that's doggone she's married now got two kids real fine husband Bet she's happy too hope so There it went hey there comes them old mules Dolly and Polly And that doggone Dolly Brown-show-off she always did that A faithful pair though never quit worked all day Took what bit of hay you had to give 'em at night for supper And ready to go back again at it the next day they're sold sold so's my soul The Good Book says as you sow so shall you reap And boys I sure made a poor crop this year yeah they're sellin' me out this year The banker gave me some good pocket money and said he was sorry Sorry well so am I they're sellin' that old place out today And let me tell you it hurts a little bit too (they're selling the homeplace today) |
