| They were farm kids way down in Dixie |
| C | G | |
| They met in | high school in the six | ties |
| D7 | |
| Everyone knew it was love from the | start |
| One July in the midnight hour |
| He climbed upon the water tower |
| D7 | C | D | |
| Stood on the rail and | painted a ten foot | heart |
| chorus |
| Em | C | |
| In | John Deere | Green |
| G | C | |
| On a hot summer | night |
| Em | C | |
| He wrote | Billy Bob loves | Charlene |
| G | C | |
| In letters three foot h | igh |
| Em | |
| And the | whole town said |
| D | |
| that he | should had used red |
| G | C | |
| But it l | ooked good to Char | lene |
| G | D | G | |
| in John | Deere G | reen |
| They settled down on eighty acres |
| Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes |
| They went together like a hand and a glove |
| On a clear day from their front yard |
| He you look and know what to look for |
| Off to the east you can still read his words of love |
