[ Featuring Deb Conrad ]
On a humble little farm many years ago
In the rolling fields where the tall corn grows
With some cows and some chickens and a pig named Flo
Way back in the country many years ago
Way back in the country many years ago
With a left arm turn and a do se do
And a double pass thru and a do paso
All eight circle and then you bow just so
Back in the country many years ago
Back in the country many years ago
All the neighbors were friendly many years ago
They would all help each other when the need was so
They would raise a barn together for their neighbor down the road
Way back in the country many years ago
Way back in the country many years ago
With a left arm turn and a do se do
And a double pass thru and a do paso
All eight circle and then you bow just so
Back in the country many years ago
Back in the country many years ago
When the crops were ripe at harvest time
They'd put on our huskin gloves walk along the line
Shuckin' all the corn with a rhythm so sweet
Bounce it off the bang board while singing to the beat
Bounce it off the bang board while singing to the beat
With a left arm turn and a do se do
And a double pass thru and a do paso
All eight circle and then you bow just so
Back in the country many years ago
Back in the country many years ago
When the day was over and the work was done
They all get together and they'd have some fun.
They break out the fiddles and rosin up the bows
Then they break bread together, and they do se do
Then they break bread together, and they do se do
With a left arm turn and a do se do
And a double pass thru and a do paso
All eight circle and then you bow just so
Back in the country many years ago
Back in the country many years ago
