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
