Where The Tall Grass Grows Lyrics - Ricky Van Shelton

There's three bedrooms 

Hardwood floors and the kitchen's new 

It's got everything a family needs 

With a backyard view 

Ask anyone where it is 

Everybody knows who used to live 

Where the tall grass grows 

A couple who lived there before 

They kept it off 

But since they left that big old yard 

Looks a little rough 

And God, I miss that little boy 

Who always kept and mowed 

Wish they'd still live 

Where the tall grass grows 

So come by and get the kid 

Go make yourself at home 

Take all the time you need 

Wish I could come along 

But I'd truly be under fire 

And crawl across its floor 

And to face those burning memories 

Where the tall grass grows 

Yes, I'd truly be under fire 

Crawl across its floor 

And to face those burning memories 

Where the tall grass grows 

Can't go back and face those memories 

Where the tall grass grows
