Y'all Come

Faron Young · Story Songs for Country Folks [Mercury] [1964]

(Arlie Duff)



Well, when you live in the country

Everybody is your neighbor

On this one thing you can rely

They'll all come to see you

And they'll never, never leave you

Saying y'all come to see us by and by.



Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us now and then

Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us when you can.

The kinfolks're comin'

They're comin' by the dozen

They're eatin' everything from soup to hay

And right after dinner

They ain't looking any thinner

And here's what you'll hear 'em say.



Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us now and then

Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us when you can.

Well, now grandma's a wishing

They'd come to kitchen

And help her do the dishes right away

But they all start leavin'

Even though she's a grievin'

You can still hear grandma say.



Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us now and then

Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us when you can.



Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us now and then

Y'all come (y'all come)

Y'all come (y'all come)

Oh, y'all come to see us when you can...
