(with Jones, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris)

The dirt was clay and was the color of the in me
A twelve acre farm on a ridge is southern
We left that sweat all over that land a mule we watched grow old
Row after row trying to grow corn and on ground so poor that grass won't

There was one old store in the we all called town
It belonged to a old man named Henry Brown
He gave us credit in the so we could live through the cold when the
brought snow
Trying to grow corn and cotton on ground so poor that grass won't
The one I loved walked those fields with me
She was a working woman true as one could be
But then one year death was going and swiftly took it's toll
had to go
Now she lies asleep under so poor that grass won't grow
As I stand here over this part of Tennessee
The are bare as far as the eye can see
And over the grave where Janie there's a beautiful sight to behold
And no one knows why there's flowers on ground so poor that grass
grow
