EWillie and Laura Mae Jones were our neighbors as long time back They A7lived right down the road from us in a Eshack just like our shack We worked in the fields together and we A7learned to count on eaEch other When you live off the land you Cdon't have time to Dthink about another man's Ecolour
CHORUS
The Ccotton was high and the Dcorn was growing Efat But Cthat was another Dplace and another Etime

EWe'd sit out on the front porch in the evening when the sun went down A7Willie would play and Laura would sing and the cEhillins would dance around And I'd bring over my guitar and we'd A7play into the Enight And every now and then CWillie would grin and say &Dquot;Boy you plEay alright"
And that made me feel so good CHORUS
The Ccotton was high and the Dcorn was growing Efat But Cthat was another Dplace and another Etime
FILL VERSE 3
EI remember we'd hitch up the mules when Saturday rolled around We'd A7always stop by Willie's house and say &Equot;Do y'all need anything from town" He'd say "No but why don't yA7'all stop on your way Eback home And I'll get Laura AMae to cook up some Ecorn poms"
And you know they're good! CHORUS
The Ccotton was high and the Dcorn was growing Efat But Cthat was another Dplace and another Etime
PLAY INTRO VERSE 4
EThe years rolled past our land and took back what they'd given And wA7e all knew we'd have to move Eif we was gonna make a living So we all moved off and A7went our seperate Eways And it sure has hard to Csay goodbye to DWillie and Laura EMae
CHORUS
The Ccotton was high and the Dcorn was growing Efat But Cthat was another Dplace and another Etime
VERSE 5
EThe years rolled past our door and we heard from them no more A7Till I saw Willie down town the other dEay I said y'all stop by tonight and A7we can sit out and eat a bite EWe'd love to see your Achillins and Laura EMae
