Tobacco is hanging in an old gray barn
A black snake is sunning in the weeds
Three crows are stealing worms from the fresh plowed earth
The crops have already gone to seed
Chorus
These are the hills where my daddy was born
Grainger County Tennessee
The homestead is gone but the legacy lives on
In the name that has been handed down to me
A farmers child one of twelve
Cut the rows with a two mule team
They doubled up on the whole workload
His momma died before he even saw thirteen
Education was a luxury money they didn?t have to spend
But he did alright as far as I can see
Ain?t met a man yet that?s half as wise as him
They broke their bread with the same hands that broke the soil
They held them hands together when they prayed
They never failed to give thanks up above
To the good Lord from whence it came
