[00:07.70]  
[00:10.76]First time he saw the ground get busted 
[00:15.92]He was ten and it was 1952 
[00:21.80]
[00:23.17]His daddy worked hard 
[00:24.87]from sunup to sundown
[00:29.70]And the goin' got tough 
[00:31.70]behind them ol' grey mules 
[00:35.80]
[00:36.63]The farm grew to be a moneymaker
[00:42.51]And the house he lived in 
[00:45.33]grew up room by room
[00:48.70]
[00:49.89]The boy worked hard but soon 
[00:52.06]got tired of farmin' 
[00:55.66]So he slipped away 
[00:57.90]one night 'neath the harvest moon 
[01:01.31]
[01:02.21]His neck was red as Alabama clay 
[01:08.63]But the city's call pulled him away 
[01:15.03]He's got a factory job 
[01:18.44]and runs a big machine
[01:21.70]He don't miss the farm 
[01:25.12]or the fields of green
[01:36.11][01:28.23]
[01:36.30]Now the city's just a prison without fences 
[01:41.80]His job is just a routine he can't stand 
[01:48.79]And at night he dreams of wide-open spaces 
[01:55.07]Fresh dirt between his toes and on his hands
[02:01.08]
[02:01.98]Then one day a picture came inside a letter 
[02:08.30]Of a young girl with a baby in her arms 
[02:15.05]And the words she wrote 
[02:16.74]would change his life forever
[02:20.90]So he went to raise his family on the farm 
[02:26.41]
[02:27.19]His neck is red as Alabama clay 
[02:33.51]Now he's goin' home this time to stay 
[02:40.14]Where the roots run deep 
[02:43.60]on the family tree 
[02:46.58]And the tractor rolls 
[02:50.02]through the fields of green
[02:52.67]
[02:53.14]His neck is red as Alabama clay 
[02:59.48]Now he's goin' home this time to stay 
[03:05.99]Where the roots run deep 
[03:09.55]on the family tree
[03:12.52]And the tractor rolls 
[03:15.92]through the fields of green
[03:19.34]His neck is red as Alabama clay
