Where the Green Grass Grows Lyrics

by Tim McGraw

Where the green grass grows
Tim McGraw

Six lanes, taillights, red ants marching into the night
They disappeared to the left and right again
Another supper from a sack, a ninety-nine cent heart attack
I got a pounding head and and aching back
And the camel's buryied in a big straw stack

But I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Every night be tucked in close to you
Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
Point our rocking chairs t'wards the west
Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
Oh, where the green grass grows

Where I'm from, a map dot, a stop sign on a blacktop
I caught the first bus I could hop from there
But all of this glitter is getting dark
There's concrete growing in the city park
I don't know who my neighbors are
And there's bars on my door and bars on my heart
