There were signs beside the road like "jesus saves"

And "relieve yourself the fast and gentle way"

I was lookin' for an old man who lived way back in these hills

Who just might have a story i could tell





Pretty soon the blacktop disappeared

I felt the car change to a lower gear

I took a drink of liquor just to chase away the chill

I was 27 miles from olive hill



Ahead i saw the bridge where i turned right

A dirt road led straight up a mountainside

I pulled up to a farmhouse i thought i had seen before

An old man and his dog were at the door





They told me this old-timer knew this land

I told him, "sir, i just don't understand

Why the kids in this state just grow up and move away

And leave the land where they were born and raised."



He said, "son, you can't make it on this land

Unless you're happy workin' with your hands

There ain't no kids today that wanna stay and work it out

They wanna see the things they hear about."





He said, "i cleared this whole farm off myself

And i'd work it now but time has got my health."

Then starin' out the window restin' in his easy chair

He told me what i'd really come to hear



"you know, son, people used to tell their kids

'now, i don't want you to have to work the way i did.'

They don't and some will tell you that it's a shame

But you have to think before you place the blame."



I guess we must have talked for half a day

'til i told him that i'd best be on my way

He shook my hand and said, "i'm glad i met you, mr. hall

But i guess there ain't no song here after all."
