Lyrics
THE FARMERS DAUGHTER
VERSE 1
MY INLAWS
ARE ALL OUTLAWS
AND THEY WANT RID OF ME
THEY'VE TOLD MY WIFE
THAT I'M NO GOOD
AND ITS HIGH TIME
SHE SET ME FREE
YOU NEED TO FIND A MAN WITH CLASS
ONE WHO'LL PLANT SOME ROOTS
ONE THAT FITS RIGHT IN THE FAMILY
YOU NEED TO FIND A MAN WITH CLASS
WHO'LL PLANT THOSE ROOTS
AND ONE WHO HAS MUCH MORE THAN
COWBOY BOOTS
CHORUS
I'M IN LOVE WITH THE FARMERS DAUGHTER
BUT THE FAMILY DON'T LIKE ME
I'M FROM THE HILLS OF INDIANA
YOU'D THINK THAT I WOULD BE
BUT SOMETHING
WENT VERY WRONGTHAT DAY
THE DAY I SAID I DO
AND YOU KNOW
THAT ITS TIME TO LEAVE TIME TO LEAVE
WHEN THE GUN IS AIMED AT YOU
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE 2
MY INLAWS ARE ALL OUTLAWS
THEY HAVE THEIR SIGHTS ON ME
YOU KNOW I REALLY
LOVE THEIR DAUGHTER
BUT I THINK
THAT ITS TIME TO LEAVE
CAUSE THERES NO LOVE STRONG ENOUGH
MEANS A GUN BEING AIMED AT ME
I GIVE UP THEYVE WON THE WAR
NO THERES NO LOVE STRONG ENOUGH
MEANS A GUN BEING AIMED AT ME
WHEN FAMILY I KNOW I'LL NEVER BE
CHORUS
I'M IN LOVE WITH THE FARMERS DAUGHTER
BUT THE FAMILY DON'T LIKE ME
I'M FROM THE HILLS OF INDIANA
YOU'D THINK THAT I WOULD BE
BUT SOMETHING
WENT VERY WRONG THAT DAY
THE DAY I SAID I DO
AND YOU KNOW
THAT ITS TIME TO LEAVE TIME TO LEAVE
WHEN THE GUNS AIMED AT YOU
I'VE HEARD OF A SHOTGUN WEDDING BUT NOT ONE FOR DIVORCE
THERE COMES A TIME TO LET GO
AND CHANGE YOUR COURSE
THERES NO FARMERS DAUGHTER WORTH DYING FOR
SHE WAS HOT I MUST ADMIT
BUT THAT GUN I CAN'T IGNORE
AND I KNEW THEN
IT WAS TIME TO QUIT
CHORUS
I'M IN LOVE WITH THE FARMERS DAUGHTER
BUT THE FAMILY DON'T LIKE ME
I'M FROM THE HILLS OF INDIANA
YOU'D THINK THAT I WOULD BE
BUT SOMETHING
WENT VERY WRONG THAT DAY
THE DAY I SAID I DO
AND YOU KNOW
THAT ITS TIME TO LEAVE TIME TO LEAVE
WHEN THE GUN IS AIMED AT YOU
