Porter Wagoner
Forty Miles From Poplar Bluff

(Larry Kingston - Frank Dycus)

I never had a pair of shoes that weren't all hand-me-downs
And daddy's morning coffee came from ol' left over ground
My mama wore no jewelry or any storebought stuff
'Cause home was just a hillside forty miles from Poplar Bluff.

Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff.

Our only family treasure was a beatup radio
And it took us to the places where we knew we'd never go
We never had much money but we always had enough
Cause money never mattered forty miles from Poplar Bluff.

Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, nearly every winter when the snow was on the ground
The roads would all be closed and we couldn't get to town
But if daddy had his tabaccor and grandma had her snuff
Then the winters didn't matter forty miles from Poplar Bluff.

Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff...


Mirror lyrics:

But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff...
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life

Then the winters didn't matter forty miles from Poplar Bluff.
But if daddy had his tabaccor and grandma had her snuff
The roads would all be closed and we couldn't get to town
Well, nearly every winter when the snow was on the ground

But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff.
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life

Cause money never mattered forty miles from Poplar Bluff.
We never had much money but we always had enough
And it took us to the places where we knew we'd never go
Our only family treasure was a beatup radio

But contenment makes it worth it forty miles from Poplar Bluff.
Life is far from fancy sometimes kinda rough
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Forty miles back in Missoury there's a different way of life

'Cause home was just a hillside forty miles from Poplar Bluff.
My mama wore no jewelry or any storebought stuff
And daddy's morning coffee came from ol' left over ground
I never had a pair of shoes that weren't all hand-me-downs
