Flatt And Scruggs - Homestead On The Farm Lyrics

Well I wonder how the old folks are at home

I wonder if they miss me while I roam

I wonder if they pray for the boy who went away

And left his dear old parents all alone



Now you can hear the cattle lowing in the lane

You can see the fields of bluegrass where I'd roam

You can almost hear them cry as they kiss their boy goodbye

I wonder how the old folks are at home



Just a village and a homestead on the farm

And a mother's love to shield you from all harm

A mother's love so dear and a sweetheart brave and true

Just a village and a homestead on the farm
