Acres Of Corn by Iris Dement


When i was a child i spoke as a child

Now i'm a grown woman but my thoughts are still wild

I thought i'd seen london or maybe paris

But i'm starin' at cornfields and they're starin' at me

 

But dreams are just things that keep in a jar

You bury your dreams or you wish on a star

For an ocean line ticket back to where you were born

Away from these hard times and the acres of corn

 

Every now and again i take a small drink

From the blackberry brandy hidden under the sink

And i pull out that steam trunk and put on my gown

And i waltz through these cornfields 'til i fall to the ground

But dreams are just things that you keep in a trunk

'til the men are out workin' or you've gone a bit drunk

Then you unlock your dreams but they're tattered and worn

So you stare out the window at the acres of corn

 

Dreams are just things that keep in a jar

You bury your dreams or you wish on a star

For an ocean line ticket back to where you were born

Away from these hard times and the acres of corn

 

When i was a child i spoke as a child

Now i'm a grown woman but my thoughts are still wild
