The Old Home Place Lyrics - There Is A Time 1963-70 - Dillards

It's been ten long years since I left my home 

In the hollow where I was born 

Where the cool fall nights make the wood smoke rise 

And the foxhunter blows his horn 

 

I fell in love with a girl from the town 

I thought that she would be true 

I ran away to Charlottesville 

And worked in a sawmill or two 

 

What have they done to the old home place 

Why did they tear it down 

And why did I leave the plow in the field 

And look for a job in the town 

 

Well my girl she ran off with somebody else 

The taverns took all my pay 

And here I stand where the old home stood 

Before they took it away
