CThey came in thinkin' top dollar Emto that old cotton crop farmer
FThey knocked on his screen door, and he
C"You know all the others went and cashed out EmWe got the subdivision all mapped out
FIt'll sit right here on this land And you can leave town a rich man"
And he said, "GBoys, whatever you're offerin', it won't be eFnough
'Cause I got a Clittle girl that used to swing right there
EmI still see her pink bow in her brown hair
FShe's in the big city, but she still calls home
FWhat's she gonna do if she comes back, and we're gone?
CAnd over there, under that wide oak tree
EmBeneath the cross is where my best buddy's buried
FLasted 13 huntin' season runnin' strong
FKeep your money 'cause a man can't leave his dog
AmAnd over there is where I Ggot down on one Fknee
You can't buy that Gkind of dirt Ccheap"

Between the Fdroughts and the floods through
"That Clittle girl that used to swing right there
EmI still see her pink bow in her brown hair
FShe's in the big city, but she still calls home
FWhat's she gonna do if she comes back, and we're gone?
CAnd over there, under that wide oak tree
EmBeneath the cross is where my best buddy's buried
FLasted 13 huntin' season runnin' strong
FKeep your money 'cause a man can't leave his dog
AmAnd over there is where I Ggot down on one Fknee
You can't buy that Gkind of dirt Ccheap"
No, it ain't Amsomethin' you fall into It's Gsomethin' God gives you
FAnd you hold on to
Just like that Clittle girl that used to swing right there
EmI still see her pink bow in her brown hair
FShe's in the big city, but she still calls home
FWhat's she gonna do if she comes back, and we're gone?
CAnd over there, under that wide oak tree
EmBeneath the cross is where my best buddy's buried
FLasted 13 huntin' season runnin' strong
FKeep your money 'cause a man can't leave his dog
AmAnd over there is where I Ggot down on one Fknee
