Day, a long while ago I
Walked down dirt road and stood
In the time great
Stone walls lined the road, black and white cattle roamed in the field
Of corn grown up straight

These times have changed since my young life, and
I never thought I'd see the day
There's houses in the cornfields and fallin down barns
And the old dirt road was paved
And the old dirt road was paved

Day, a long while ago I rocked on the front porch
Sipped cool lemonaide
Neighbors pass by they smile
Stopped and talk of the corn wither on the day

Now these times have changed since my young life, I never thought I'd see the day
There's houses in the corn field and falin' down barns
And the old dirt road was paved
And the old dirt road was paved

Day short while ago I stalked down dirt road and stood, time of change
Sat by a stone wall I stared at a front porch fallin' down, withered from the rain
Now these times have changed since my young life and I never thought I'd see the day
There's houses in the corn field and a fallin downbarn
And the old dirt road was paved
And the old dirt road was paved
