We Don't Grow Tobacco Lyrics - Singles - Old Crow Medicine Show

All these work ever I done, 

Been beneath that burning sun 

So that tobacco around to cure. 

I would chop that wicked weed 

Till our hands and feet will bleed 

I'm working like I'm you, baby boy 

We've been farming on this land since eighteen ten 

Through drought and pest and, and war 

Now I'm sure, I'm set to say 

Better I lived to see this day 

And we don't grow tobacco around here no more! 

We don't grow, we don't grow 

Oh, it's still the only work will ever know 

Well, we don't grow, we don't grow 

We don't grow tobacco around here no more! 

Grandpa told me this, I know 

Change is coming, it won't be slow 

Knocking just like a thunder at the door 

Better feel the roar around 

Empty bonds just fall undone 

Coming up through the floor 

Once we by the pond, 

Now the kids have moved to town 

And all it's left are and corn 

Not sure what I'm said to say 

That I will live to see this day 

And we don't grow tobacco around here no more 

We don't grow, we don't grow 

It's still the only work will ever know 

Well, we don't grow, we don't grow 

We don't grow tobacco around here no more! 

Uh, sure to say 

This way of life has gone away 

Now that we don't grow tobacco around here no more 

No we don't grow tobacco around here no more!
