Pain in the FieldsHer family lived in a farm house On the outskirts of town They came to church every Sunday But they didn't hang around I met her in Sunday school They tried to teach us wrong from right I said I'd trade a hundred years in heaven To be with her for just one night Chorus: Now there's pain in the fields And lightning in the sky Thunder in her daddy's voice And rain in my baby's eyes Well I guess we were foolish But we were just a couple of kids We didn't consider the consequences It was just something that we did I said I'd do right by her But her daddy just wouldn't hear He said leave and take that tramp with you She is no longer welcome here Chorus: Now there's pain in the fields And lightning in the sky Thunder in her daddy's voice And rain in my baby's eyes So we both quit high school She took a job at the 5 and dime We rented a place at the trailer park And bought some furniture on time I've spent the last ten years at the mill Running a heat set machine Seven days a week, fifty weeks a year From 7:00 am until 3:00 Bridge: But I remember driving down that old dirt road With my lights turned out so her father wouldn't know And how her kisses tasted so sweet But remembering is a slippery slope It takes you to places you never should go Like that cornfield where we used to meet Chorus: Cause there's pain in the fields And lightning in the sky Thunder in her daddy's voice And rain in my baby's eyes Pain in the fields Lightning in the sky Thunder all around us And rain in my baby's eyes Copyright Kent Newsome and Rick Paul All Rights Reserved |
