The Fields Have Turned Brown

 

I left my old home to ramble this country

My mother and Dad said son don’t go wrong

Remember that God will always watch oe’r you

And we will be waiting for you here at home

 

Chorus:

Son don’t go astray was what they both told me

Remember that love for God can be found

But now they’re both gone this letter just told me

For years they’ve been dead the fields have turned brown

 

For many long years

This world I have travelled

No thoughts of the day when I would return

Now as I go home to find no one waiting

The price I have paid to live and to learn
