Willie And Laura Mae Jones

[00:00:12] Were our neighbours a long time back

[00:00:18] They lived right down the road from us

[00:00:20] In a shack just like our shack

[00:00:23] We worked in the fields together

[00:00:26] And we learned to count on each other

[00:00:29] When you live off the land

[00:00:30] You don't have the time to think about another mans colour

[00:00:39] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine

[00:00:42] But that was another place and another time

[00:00:45] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:00:47] But that was another place and another time

[00:00:51] Sit out on the front porch

[00:00:53] In the evening when the sun went down

[00:00:55] Willie would play and the kids would sing

[00:00:59] And everybody would mess around

[00:01:03] Daddyd bring out his guitar

[00:01:05] And play on through the night

[00:01:08] Every now and then ol willie would grin and say

[00:01:11] Hey you play all right

[00:01:14] Made me feel so good

[00:01:16] I remember willie would hitch the mules up

[00:01:18] When sandy rolled around

[00:01:20] We all would stop by willies house and say

[00:01:23] Do yall need anything from town

[00:01:28] Hed say no but why don't yall stop on the way back home

[00:01:34] And I'll get laura mae yeah to cook up some corn bone

[00:01:38] And you know that's good

[00:01:40] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:01:45] But that was another place and another time

[00:01:49] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:01:55] But that was another place and another time

[00:02:17] Oh the years rolled past the land

[00:02:20] And took back what theyd given

[00:02:23] We all knew we had to move

[00:02:26] If I was gonna make a living

[00:02:29] So we all moved off

[00:02:31] And went about our separate ways

[00:02:35] It sure was hard to say goodbye

[00:02:37] To willie and laura mae

[00:02:40] Jones y'all

[00:02:42] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:02:48] But that was another place and another time

[00:02:52] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:02:59] But that was another place and another time

[00:03:06] The years roll passed our door and we heard from them no more

[00:03:12] 'til I saw willie down town the other day

[00:03:16] I said y'all stop by tonight we can sit down and eat a bite

[00:03:22] We'd love to see your children and laura mae

[00:03:27] He shook real stoic

[00:03:30] And spoke with his eyes so kind

[00:03:33] He said this was another place and another time

[00:03:38] The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine yes it was

[00:03:53] But that was another place and another time
