[00:11.32]She went back to Wichita
[00:14.25]She went back to her ma and pa
[00:16.51]Reckon I saw her next to my truck
[00:18.99]Pumping gas with the car packed up
[00:21.88]We talked as neighbors will
[00:24.13]There waiting for the tank to fill
[00:26.43]We talked about nothing, how it might snow
[00:29.32]How far she had to go
[00:31.11]Going back where the grass grows tall
[00:36.59]And the fields burn in the fall
[00:41.72]You can still hear the night birds call
[00:46.44]Back in Wichita
[00:52.58]She came in ’85
[00:55.35]She came here as a July bride
[00:57.72]But it never got easy, never got rich
[01:00.32]Ain’t got much but what she came here with
[01:02.99]Good times have all been spent
[01:05.60]She ain’t broken but she’s badly bent
[01:07.61]Got nothing she wants here, nothing that shines
[01:10.74]She’s made up her mind
[01:12.76]Going back where the grass grows tall
[01:17.77]And the fields burn in the fall
[01:22.99]You can still hear the night birds call
[01:27.33]Back in Wichita
[01:29.46]
[01:48.78]She says for all my time, well, I ain’t got much to show
[01:53.98]You can tell that man of mine and anyone who wants to know
[01:59.66]Going back where the grass grows tall
[02:04.84]And the fields burn in the fall
[02:10.24]You can still hear the night birds call
[02:14.75]Back in Wichita
[02:17.68]Going back where the grass grows tall
[02:23.06]And the fields burn in the fall
[02:28.39]You can still hear the night birds call
[02:32.88]Back in Wichita
[02:34.71]
[02:47.23]Thanks
