Daddy sits on the front porch swingin' |
| | | |
Lookin' out on a | vac | ant | field |
| |
It used to be filled with burly t’bacca now he knows it never | will |
My brother found work in Indiana |
| | | |
My sister's a nurse at the | old | folks | home |
| |
Momma's still cookin' too much for supper and me I've been a long time | gone |
| | | |
No I | ain't hoed a | row since I | don't know when |
| | | | |
Long | time | gone and it | ain't comin' back a | gain |

Delia plays that old church piano |
| | | |
Sittin' out on her | da | ddy's | farm |
| |
She always thought that we'd be together Lord I never meant to do her | harm |
Said she could heard me singin' in the choir |
| |
I got wind and hit the road runnin' and Lord I've been a long time | gone |
| | | |
No I | ain't had a | prayer since I | don't know when |
| | | | |
Long | time | gone and it | ain't comin' back a | gain |

Now | me I went to Nashville tryin' to be the big deal |
|
Playin' down on Broadway gettin' there the hard way |
|
Livin' from a tip jar sleepin' in my car |
| | |
Hockin' my guitar yeah I'm gonna be a | star | |
| |
Now | me and Delia singin' every Sunday |
| | | |
Watchin' the garden and the | chil | dren | grow |
| |
We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin' but the music ain't got no | soul |
Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard |
| | | |
They got money but they | don't | have | Cash |
They got Junior but they don't have Hank I think I think I think the rest is... |
| | | |
No I | ain't honked a | horn since I | don't know when |
| | | | |
Long | time | gone and it | ain't comin' back a | gain |
| | | |
No I | ain't honked a | horn since I | don't know when |
| | | | |
Long | time | gone and it | ain't comin' back a | gain |
