SOL
They were farm kids way down in Dixie
DO SOL
They met in high school in the sixties
RE7
Everyone knew it was love from the start
One July in the midnight hour
He climbed upon the water tower
RE7 DO RE
Stood on the rail and painted a ten foot heart
chorus
MIm DO
In John Deere Green
SOL DO
On a hot summer night
MIm DO
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
SOL DO
In letters three foot high
MIm
And the whole town said
RE
that he should had used red
SOL DO
But it looked good to Charlene
SOL RE SOL
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
He you look and know what to look for
Off to the east you can still read his words of love
chorus
