There's three bedrooms hardwood floors and the kitchen's new It's got everything a family needs and a backyard view Ask anyone where it is, everybody knows Who used to live where the tall gra** grows The couple who lived there before, they kept it up But since they left, that little yard looks a little rough And, God, I miss that little boy who always kept it mowed Wish they still lived where the tall gra** grows
So come by and get the key, go make yourself at home Take all the time you need, wish I could come along But I'd sooner build a fire and crawl across it slow Than face those burning memories where the tall gra** grows And I'd sooner build a fire and crawl across it slow Than face those burning memories where the tall gra** grows Oh, than face those burning memories where the tall gra** grows
