My Red Dirt World

Did you ever see a red dirt road With a red dirt pond ‘long side? Brilliant yellow sunflowers In the grass where burrs might hide? Oil wells thriving endlessly White gobs from a cotton patch Bolls in the patch ready to burst Sweet blooms like a bird that hatched All my red dirt rides in the country Are laced with these wondrous things They sum up the life I’ve lived so far Kinda tug at my worn heart strings Ah yes, such red dirt memories As I wonder through life’s plan But I do my best along the way For I’m just a red dirt man!
