Artist/Band: Dillards
Lyrics for Song: Old Home Place
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Dillards



It's been ten long years since I left my home

In the hollow where I was born

Where the cool fall nights make the wood smoke rise

And the foxhunter blows his horn



I fell in love with a girl from the town

I thought that she would be true

I ran away to Charlottesville

And worked in a sawmill or two



What have they done to the old home place

Why did they tear it down

And why did I leave the plow in the field

And look for a job in the town



Well my girl she ran off with somebody else

The taverns took all my pay

And here I stand where the old home stood

Before they took it away



Now the geese they fly south and the cold wind blows

As I stand here and hang my head

I've lost my love I've lost my home

And now I wish that I was dead
