The Old Kelly Place - Walter Brennan[00:00:00]

Written by：Cliff Crofford[00:00:02]

I guess there was a time I could have left[00:00:05]

This old place[00:00:07]

As a young man I longed to see more than[00:00:09]

Fields of corn[00:00:11]

I remember once I had a hundred dollars saved[00:00:14]

But dad needed it to put in this old farm[00:00:18]

He used to say son[00:00:23]

You got to put down roots[00:00:24]

Like I done and the kelly's before me[00:00:26]

He'd pick up a handful of that wore out dirty[00:00:30]

And I knowed I was in for this familiar old story[00:00:34]

You know that forty acres we got in corn this year[00:00:39]

Your great grand daddy cleared that land[00:00:44]

With two big mules and sweat and tears[00:00:48]

And a good woman who lent him a hand[00:00:52]

And when he give out before his time[00:00:57]

Them boys of his hand land of their own[00:01:01]

So you see all of this that I call mine[00:01:05]

Is more in the neighborhood of just a loan[00:01:09]

From father to son son[00:01:14]

Through a hundred years hundred years[00:01:16]

For generations still unknown[00:01:18]

Every kelly every kelly passin' through this way[00:01:23]

Through this way[00:01:26]

Will know this place know this place as home[00:01:27]

Yet dad had a way of tellin' that story[00:01:34]

Sorta kept me a lingerin' on[00:01:38]

While all my younger brothers drifted away one by one[00:01:42]

But I couldn't leave him alone[00:01:47]

And today when that oldest son of mine[00:01:51]

Got to talkin' about places he longed to see[00:01:56]

I told him once again that old familiar story[00:02:00]

Just the way it was told to me[00:02:05]

From father to son to son[00:02:08]

Through a hundred years hundred years[00:02:10]

For generations still unknown unknown[00:02:13]

Every kelly every kelly passin' passin' through this way[00:02:17]

Through this way[00:02:20]

Will know this place as home[00:02:23]
