Lyrics

I knew a poor boy who was raised in the country
He came from a big family that slept in a barn
The blood hounds and sheep were his closest companions
They did what they could to keep him out of harm
But one day the rain stopped and the land had turned dry
The little farm tried reaching for the blue skies
They were left to watch as the fields began to die
John Dylan grew angry and so he asked God why
It was 1936
On the plains out west
Ma took John into her breast
Praying to her crucifix
While the others were laid to rest
While the others were laid to rest
John had turned ten in the month of September
Spent his glory days growing up on the farm
A cool breeze blowin' through felt good in the cornfields
Mother Dylan sang happily while spinning her yarn
It was 1936
On the plains out west
Ma took John into her breast
Praying to her crucifix
While the others were laid to rest
While the others were laid to rest
Instrumental break
But one day the rain stopped and the land had turned dry
The little farm tried reaching for the blue skies
They were left to watch as the fields began to die
John Dylan grew angry and so he asked God why
It was 1936
On the plains out west
Ma took John into her breast
Praying to her crucifix
While the others were laid to rest
While the others were laid to rest
While the others were laid to rest
