Stanley Brothers - Fields Have Turned Brown, The lyrics

rate me

I left my old home to ramble this country

My mother and dad said son don't go wrong

Remember that God will always watch o'er you

And we will be waiting for you here at home

Son don't go astray was what they both told me

Remember that love for God can be found

But now they're both gone this letter just told me

For years they've been dead, the fields have turned brown

For many long years this world I have rambled

No thoughts of the day when I would return

Now as I go home and find no one waiting

The price I have paid to live and to learn
