John Deere Green (Re-Recorded) [Sped Up]

They were farm kids way down in Dixie

They met in high school in the sixties

Everyone knew it was love from the start

One July in the midnight hour

They climbed upon the water tower

Stood on the rail and painted a ten foot heart

In John Deere green, on a hot summer night

He wrote "Billy Bob loves Charlene" in letters three foot high

And the whole town said that he should've used red

But it looked good to Charlene

In John Deere green

They settled down on eighty acres

Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes

They went together like a hand and a glove

On a clear day, from their front yard

If you look and know what to look for

Off to the east you can still read his words of love

In John Deere green, on a hot summer night

He wrote "Billy Bob loves Charlene" in letters three foot high

And the whole town said the boy should've used red

But it looked good to Charlene

In John Deere green

Now more than once the town has discovered

Painting over it ain't no use

There ain't no paint in the world that'll cover it

The heart keeps showing through

In John Deere green, on a hot summer night

He wrote "Billy Bob loves Charlene" in letters three foot high

And the whole town said the fool should've used red

But it looked good to Charlene

In John Deere green

Ah, paint it green boy

In John Deere green, on a hot summer night

He wrote "Billy Bob loves Charlene" in letters three foot high

And the whole town said the boy should've used red

But it looked good to Charlene

In John Deere green
