Dwight Yoakam
Floyd County

It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

The six children he raised are all weepin'
For this soft-spoken mountain man
Who fed them with the money
he earned in those black mines
And the food he could raise with his hands

It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

Though the world knew nothing of his wisdom
Or the honest and simple things he did
There's some folks cryin' on this hillside today
That know about the humble way he lived

It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

Instrumental

Now this house in the holler stands empty
Though his presence in my memory is plain
You know that I'd swear that
I just saw him walkin' up that hill
I guess this place just won't never be the same

It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones...


Mirror lyrics:

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones...
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

I guess this place just won't never be the same
I just saw him walkin' up that hill
You know that I'd swear that
Though his presence in my memory is plain
Now this house in the holler stands empty

Instrumental

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

That know about the humble way he lived
There's some folks cryin' on this hillside today
Or the honest and simple things he did
Though the world knew nothing of his wisdom

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones

And the food he could raise with his hands
he earned in those black mines
Who fed them with the money
For this soft-spoken mountain man
The six children he raised are all weepin'

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
And at the grave his woman cries and she moans
Yeah, the grief is strong for the man that's gone
It's a sad day in Floyd County, Mr. Jones
