Lyrics for Song: Blackberry Dreams
Lyrics for Album: Natural Dreams [Mercury] [1984]
(Tom T. Hall)
Blackberry jelly and blackberry jam
Blackberry's cobbler and blackberrys canned
We used to pick 'em and sell 'em
And was that a dollar a gallon.
Sun filled days and the moon filled nights
Cowboy movies and funnybook fights
Old ked sneakers and ragged ole jeans
But we had our blackberry dreams.
Hey up in the mornin' and out to the vines
June and July that was blackberry time
Sure did taste good on a biscuit
And we'd steal some wine if they fixed it.
Saturday mornin's we'd go into town
Spend all our money on kids who were around
Flat broke on Sunday fish in the streams
And we had our blackberry dreams.
[ guitar ]
Girls didn't care about blackberry boys
They didn't like us but they sure liked our toys
And we used to trick 'em and tease 'em
Lord we never thought we would need 'em.
We gave Mrs Walker a gallon one day
Cause she couldn't pick 'em and she couldn't pay
And we thought it worthy of Roy and Gene
And those were our blackberry dreams.
And I was just thinking about it today
Blackberry summers blackberry ways
We kept the sun on the right side
May we always look at the bright side.
You know it seems funny but as I look back
We've always been in a blackberry patch
Still got my sneakers and my ragged ole jeans
And I still got my blackberry dreams...
