Fields Lyrics by Andy Velo

The Collection

0

[Verse 1]
Whoever thought they could tare up the ground
And make a suburb out of this small town
They build and they build and keep tackin' more on
Where have all the fields gone?
[Verse 2]
That third generation farm got covered overnight
The folks 'round here didn't need a high rise
Yeah, tillin' up green doesn't mean it ain't wrong
Where have all the fields gone?
[Chorus]
Somethings are better left alone
But somethings a simple man can't save
This sinkin' feelin' won't let me go
It's like I'm standin' over a grave
No you wouldn't pick apart and take out the heart of the steel of an old Hank song
So where have all the fields gone?
[Verse 3]
I kissed Jessie back in corn rows
Same place the county fair used to go
Now that memory is buried under two strip malls
Where have all the fields gone?
[Chorus]
Somethings are better left alone
But somethings a simple man can't save
This sinkin' feelin' won't let me go
It's like I'm standin' over a grave
No you wouldn't pick apart and change the guitar in an old Buck Owen song
So where have all the fields gone?
[Bridge]
Nobody prays for a rain pourin' cold concrete
Once it all gets erased it's just "used to bes"
[Chorus]
Somethings are better left alone
But somethings a simple man can't save
This sinkin' feelin' won't let me go
It's like I'm standin' over a grave
No you wouldn't pick apart what you know by heart in a King George Strait song
So where have all the fields gone?
[Outro]
Yeah anyone said come and tear up our ground
Oughta be kept on a tune
