They were farm kids way down in |
|
Dixie Met in high school in the sixties |
|
Everyone knew it was love from the start |
|
One July in the midnight hour |
|
He climbed upon the water tower |
|
Stood on the rail and painted a 10ft heart |
|
In John Deere |
|
Green On a hot summer night |
|
He wrote Billy |
|
Bob loves |
|
Charlene In letters 3 foot high |
|
And the whole town said that he should have used red |
|
But it looked good to |
|
Charlene In |
|
John Deere |
|
Green They settled down on 80 acres |
|
Raising sweet corn, kids, and tomatoes |
|
They went together like a hand and a glove |
|
On a clear day from their front yard |
|
If you look and know what to look for |
|
Off to the east you can still read his words of love |
|
In John Deere |
|
Green On a hot summer night |
|
He wrote Billy |
|
Bob loves |
|
Charlene In letters 3 foot high |
|
And the whole town said the boy should have used red |
|
But it looked good to |
|
Charlene In |
|
John Deere |
|
Green Now more than once |
|
The town has discovered painting over it ain't no use |
|
There ain't no paint in the world |
|
That'll cover it, the heart keeps showing through |
|
In John Deere |
|
Green On a hot summer night |
|
He wrote Billy |
|
Bob loves |
|
Charlene In letters 3ft high |
|
And the whole town said the fool should have used red |
|
But it looked good to |
|
Charlene In |
|
John Deere |
|
Green Ahh paint it green boy |
|
In John Deere |
|
Green On a hot summer night |
|
He wrote Billy |
|
Bob loves |
|
Charlene In letters 3 foothigh |
|
And the whole town said the boy should have used red |
|
But it looked good to |
|
Charlene In |
|
John Deere |
|
Green John |
|
Deere Green |
