Gone are the days
when the ox fall down
Take up the yoke and
plow the fields around
Gone are the days
when the ladies said' "Please
Gentle Jack Jones won't
you come to me."
Brown-eyed women
and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty
but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with
the rain pourin' down
And it looks like
the old man's gettin' on
1929 when he stepped
to the bar
drank to the dregs
of the whiskey jar.
1030 when the
wall caved in
he made his way
selling red-eyed gin.
Brown-eyed women
and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty
but the liquor was clean.
Sound of the thunder with
the rain pourin' down,
And it looks like
the old man's gettin' on
Delilah Jones was
the mother of twins
Two times over and
the rest were sins
Raised eight boys
only I turned bad
Didn't get the lickin's
that the other ones had
Brown-eyed women
and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty
but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder
with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like
the old man's gettin' on
Tumble down shack
in Big Foot county
Snowed so hard tha
the roof caved in
Delilah Jones went
to meet her God
And the old man never
was the same again.
Daddy made whiskey
and he made it well.
Cost two dollars and
it burned like hell
I cut hick'ry just
to fire the still,
Drink down a bottle
and be ready to kill
Brown-eyed women
and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but
the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with
the rain pourin' down
And it looks like
the old man's gettin' on
Gone are the days
when the ox fall down
Take up the yoke and
plow the fields around
Gone are the days when
the ladies said' "Please
Gentle Jack Jones won't
you come to me."
Brown-eyed women
and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty
but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder
with the rain pourin' down
