WILLIE AND LAURA MAE JONES Lyrics – TONY JOE WHITE
Singer: TONY JOE WHITE
Title: WILLIE AND LAURA MAE JONES
Willie and Laura Mae Jones
Were our neighbors as long time back
They lived right down the road from us
In a shack just like our shack
We worked in the fields together
And we learned to count on each other
When you live off the land
You don’t have time to think
About another man’s color
The cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time
We sit out on the front porch
In the evening when the sun went down
Willie would play and Laura would sing
And the children would dance around
And I’d bring over my guitar
And we’d play into the night
And every now and then
Willie would grin and say
“Boy, you play all right”
And that made me feel so good
Lord the cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time
I remember we’d hitch up the mules
When Saturday rolled around
We’d always stop by Willies house and say
“Do you’ll need anything from town?”
He’d say, “No, but why don’t you’ll
Stop on your way back home
And I’ll get Laura Mae
To cook up some corn p#rns?”
You know they’re good
Lord the cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time
The years rolled past our land
They took back what they’d given
And we all knew we’d have to move
If we was gonna make a living
So we all moved off
And went our separate ways
And it sure was hard to say goodbye
To Willies and Laura Mae Jones
The cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine, yes it was
But that was another place and another time
The years rolled past our door
And we heard from them no more
Till I saw Willie down town the other day
I said, “Just stop by tonight
And we can sit down and eat a bite
We’d love to see your children and Laura Mae”
He shook his head real slow
And spoke with his eyes so can
This is another place and another time
Lord the cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time
Lord, Lord the cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
The cotton was high
And the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time

WILLIE AND LAURA MAE JONES – Terjemahan / Translation
Willie dan Laura Mae Jones
Adalah tetangga kami selama waktu kembali
Mereka hidup kanan jalan dari kami
Di sebuah gubuk seperti gubuk kami
Kami bekerja di bidang bersama-sama
Dan kita belajar untuk mengandalkan satu sama lain
Ketika Anda hidup dari tanah
Anda tidak punya waktu untuk berpikir
Tentang warna orang lain
kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Kami duduk di teras depan
Di malam hari ketika matahari terbenam
Willie akan bermain dan Laura akan bernyanyi
Dan anak-anak akan menari di sekitar
Dan aku akan membawa lebih gitar saya
Dan kami akan bermain malam
Dan setiap sekarang dan kemudian
Willie akan tersenyum dan berkata
“Boy, Anda bermain baik-”
Dan yang membuat saya merasa begitu baik
Tuhan kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Aku ingat kita akan halangan atas keledai
Ketika Sabtu berguling-guling
Kami akan selalu berhenti oleh burung rumah dan katakanlah
“Apakah Anda akan perlu apa-apa dari kota?”
Dia akan mengatakan, “Tidak, tapi kenapa tidak Anda akan
Berhenti pada Anda perjalanan pulang
Dan aku akan mendapatkan Laura Mae
Untuk memasak beberapa p#rns jagung?”
Anda tahu mereka baik sedang
Tuhan kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Tahun-tahun digulung masa lalu tanah kami
Mereka mengambil kembali apa yang telah mereka diberikan
Dan kita semua tahu bahwa kami harus pindah
Jika kita adalah akan membuat hidup
Jadi kita semua pindah off
Dan berpisah
Dan yakin itu sulit untuk mengucapkan selamat tinggal
Untuk burung dan Laura Mae Jones
kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik, ya itu
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Tahun-tahun digulung melewati pintu kami
Dan kami mendengar dari mereka tidak lebih
Sampai aku melihat Willie ke kota hari lain
Aku berkata, “Hanya mampir malam ini
Dan kita bisa duduk dan makan menggigit
Kami ingin melihat anak-anak Anda dan Laura Mae”
Dia menggeleng lambat nyata
Dan berbicara dengan matanya sehingga dapat
Ini adalah tempat lain dan waktu lain
Tuhan kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Tuhan, Tuhan kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
Tuhan, Tuhan, Tuhan, Tuhan
kapas tinggi
Dan jagung tumbuh baik
Tapi itu tempat lain dan waktu lain
