Lyrics
0:09They came in thinkin' top dollar
0:12To that old cotton crop farmer
0:17They knocked on his screen door and he said
0:21Lord what you need boys and they said
0:24You know all the others went and cashed out
0:28We got the subdivision all mapped out
0:32It'll sit right here on this land
0:36And you can leave town a rich man
0:39And he said boys whatever you're offerin' it won't be enough
0:47'Cause I got a little girl that used to swing right there
0:52I still see her pink bow in her brown hair
0:56She's in the big city but she still calls home
1:00What's she gonna do if she comes back and we're gone
1:04And over there under that widе oak tree
1:08Beneath the cross is where my best buddy's buried
1:12Lasted thirteen huntin' season runnin' strong
1:16Keep your money 'cause a man can't leave his dog
1:20And over there is where I got down on one knee
1:27You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap
1:36One man smiled and he kinda looked away
1:39The other said before we go
1:41I gotta know one thing
1:43Between the droughts and the floods through all the years
1:47What in the world got you through
1:49How the hell'd you get here and he said
1:52That little girl that used to swing right there
1:56I still see her pink bow in her brown hair
2:00Runnin' up after one of them long days
2:04A big smile makin' every little worry fade
2:08And over there under that wide oak tree
2:12Beneath the cross where my best buddy's buried
2:16All them huntin' seasons freezin' in a jon boat
2:20Me and him double-barrel and a two-stroke
2:24And that woman that said 'yes' when
2:26I got down on one knee
2:30Yeah you can't buy that kind of dirt cheap
2:39No it ain't somethin' you fall into
2:41It's somethin' God gives you
2:45And you hold on to
2:51Just like that little girl who used to swing right there
2:56I still see her pink bow in her brown hair
2:59She's in the big city now but she still calls home
3:03She's comin' back next week and man it's been too long
3:08And over there under that wide oak tree
3:12Beside the cross where my best buddy's buried
3:16Lays a puppy posted up in the shade
3:20That woman never could turn away a stray
3:24I guess that's why she said yes when I got down on one knee
3:31Oh long as all this is here why the hell would I ever leave
3:38You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap
They came in thinkin' top dollar To that old cotton crop farmer They knocked on his screen door and he said Lord what you need boys and they said You know all the others went and cashed out We got the subdivision all mapped out It'll sit right here on this land And you can leave town a rich man And he said boys whatever you're offerin' it won't be enough 'Cause I got a little girl that used to swing right there I still see her pink bow in her brown hair She's in the big city but she still calls home What's she gonna do if she comes back and we're gone And over there under that widе oak tree Beneath the cross is where my best buddy's buried Lasted thirteen huntin' season runnin' strong Keep your money 'cause a man can't leave his dog And over there is where I got down on one knee You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap One man smiled and he kinda looked away The other said before we go I gotta know one thing Between the droughts and the floods through all the years What in the world got you through How the hell'd you get here and he said That little girl that used to swing right there I still see her pink bow in her brown hair Runnin' up after one of them long days A big smile makin' every little worry fade And over there under that wide oak tree Beneath the cross where my best buddy's buried All them huntin' seasons freezin' in a jon boat Me and him double-barrel and a two-stroke And that woman that said 'yes' when I got down on one knee Yeah you can't buy that kind of dirt cheap No it ain't somethin' you fall into It's somethin' God gives you And you hold on to Just like that little girl who used to swing right there I still see her pink bow in her brown hair She's in the big city now but she still calls home She's comin' back next week and man it's been too long And over there under that wide oak tree Beside the cross where my best buddy's buried Lays a puppy posted up in the shade That woman never could turn away a stray I guess that's why she said yes when I got down on one knee Oh long as all this is here why the hell would I ever leave You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap
