๐ Lyrics
All these work that ever I've done
Been beneath that burning sun
So, holding that tobacco around to cure
I would chop that wicked weed
'Til our hands and fingers bleed
I'm working like I'm you, baby boy
We've been farming on this land since 1810
Through the drought and pestilence and war
Now I sure am sad to say
That I would live to see this day
And we don't grow tobacco around here no more
We don't grow, we don't grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
We don't grow, we don't grow
We don't grow tobacco around here no more
Grandpa told me this, I know
Change is coming, it won't be slow
Knocking just like a thunder at the door
Better feel the roar around
Empty bonds just fall undone
Where iron is coming up through the floor
Once we grow it by the pond
Now the kids are moved to town
And all that's left are road and meat and corn
Now I sure am sad to say
That I will live to see this day
And we don't grow tobacco around here no more
We don't grow, we don't grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
Well, we don't grow, we don't grow
We don't grow tobacco around here no more, oh
Woo, yes, I sure am sad to say
This way of life has gone away
Now that we don't grow tobacco around here no more
Well no we don't grow tobacco around here no more
Been beneath that burning sun
So, holding that tobacco around to cure
I would chop that wicked weed
'Til our hands and fingers bleed
I'm working like I'm you, baby boy
We've been farming on this land since 1810
Through the drought and pestilence and war
Now I sure am sad to say
That I would live to see this day
And we don't grow tobacco around here no more
We don't grow, we don't grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
We don't grow, we don't grow
We don't grow tobacco around here no more
Grandpa told me this, I know
Change is coming, it won't be slow
Knocking just like a thunder at the door
Better feel the roar around
Empty bonds just fall undone
Where iron is coming up through the floor
Once we grow it by the pond
Now the kids are moved to town
And all that's left are road and meat and corn
Now I sure am sad to say
That I will live to see this day
And we don't grow tobacco around here no more
We don't grow, we don't grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
Well, we don't grow, we don't grow
We don't grow tobacco around here no more, oh
Woo, yes, I sure am sad to say
This way of life has gone away
Now that we don't grow tobacco around here no more
Well no we don't grow tobacco around here no more
