The Fields Have Turned Brown Songtext
von The Country Gentlemen

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 o'er you
And we will be waitin′ for you here at home"


"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

A many long years I travelled this country
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

"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
