Written by Marty Stuart
Fields are deathly quiet
Where the cotton used to grow
I`m a stranger in a land
That I used to know
In a land
A land I`ve not forgotten
Look away
Far Away
Everything has changed here
"Cept some things inside of me
I`ve hid `em from the world
Kept them under lock and key
Like the sound of my mama`s voice
Callin` me back home
To the place
Where I belong
Far Away
Far Away
Don`t know why I left you
And look how long I`ve stayed
Far away
Far away
How`d I get so far away
Carved my name one Sunday morning
On a sweet magonia tree
I cried when I walked away
Broke my heart to leave
Took that little piece of me
Put it in my pocket
I`ve lost myself a time or two
And I never once forgot it
Far away
Far away
Don`t know why I left you
And look how long I`ve stayed
Far away
Far away
How`d I get so far away
Far away
Far away
Don`t know why I left you
But look how long I`ve stayed
Far away
Far away
How`d I get so far away
How did I get so far away
