First time he saw the ground get busted,
he was ten and it was 1952.
His daddy worked hard from sunup to sundown,
and the goin' got tough behind them ol´ grey mules
The farm grew to be a moneymaker,
and the house he lived in grew up room by room.
The boy worked hard but soon got tired of farming,
so he slipped away one night ´neath the harvest moon
CHORUS 1
His neck was red as Alabama Clay,
Then one day a picture came inside a letter,
of a young girl with a baby in her arms.
And the words she wrote would change his live forever,
so he went to raise his family on the farm.
CHORUS 2 ( 2x )
His neck is red as Alabama Clay,
now he´s going home this time to stay,
where the roots run deep, on the family tree, and the tractor rolls through the fields of green.
His neck is red, as Alabama Clay
