letra de willie and laura mae jones - nancy wilson

[verse 1]
willie and laura mae jones
were our neighbors a long time back
they lived right down the road from us
in a shack just like our shack
the people worked the land together
and we learned to count on each other
when you live off the land you don’t have the time
to think about another man’s color

[verse 2]
sit out on the front porch
in the evening when the sun went down
willie would play and the kids would sing
and everybody would mess around
daddy would bring out his guitar
and hе’s play on through the night
and every now and thеn willie would grin and say
“hey, you play all right”
[chorus]
yeah, the cotton was high and the corn was growing fine
but that was another place and another time

[verse 3]
i remember the best times of all
when sat-rday came around
we’d always stop by willie’s house and say
“hey, y’all need anything in town?”
he’d say, “no, but why don’t you
stop on the way back through?
and i’ll get laura mae, hey
to cook up some barbeque”
and you know that’s good

[chorus]
the cotton was high and the corn was growing fine
but that was another place and another time

[verse 4]
the years rolled past our land
they took back what they’d given
we all knew we’d have to move
if we was gonna make a living
so we all moved off
and we went about our separate ways
but it sure was hard to say goodbye
to willie and laura mae
[chorus]
the cotton was high and the corn was growing fine
but that was another place and another time

[outro]
but that was another place and another time
