Waylon Jennings (1937-2002) fue un reputado músico de country. Comenzó su carrera a finales de los 50 en la banda de acompañamiento de Buddy Holly (The Crickets).
Fue uno de los máximos exponentes -junto a su amigo Willie Nelson- del movimiento outlaw, que dentro del género trataba de plantar cara al mainstream popero y mercantilista que se hacía a finales de los 70 en Nashville.
Los 70 fueron su época dorada, con éxitos como "You asked me too" o "Luckemback, Texas".

performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Verse 1: DGD As we sat on the front porch of that old grey house where i was born and raised BmGD Stared out at the dusty fields where daddy always worked hard eveyday BmGD I think it kind of hurt him when i said "Daddy there's a lot that i don't know BmGD But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow"
Verse 2: DGD He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup BmGD I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes when he looked up BmGD He said "Son i know at your age it feels like this ol' world is turning slow BmGD And you think you'll find the answer to it all,where corn don't grow"
Chorus: DBmG Hard times are real,there's dusty fields D No matter where you go BmG You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high D Where corn don't grow
Verse 3: DGD I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house BmGD I was only seventeen back then but it seems like i knew more than i do now BmGD I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe BmGD It's funny how a dream can turn around,where corn don't grow
Chorus.
DBmG You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high D Where corn don't grow
