Zach Top - Old Home Place (Cover)

The Dillards' "Old Home Place" performed by Zach Top.
Lyrics:
It's been ten long years since I left my home
In the hollow where I was born
Where the cool fall nights make the wood smoke rise
And the foxhunter blows his horn
I fell in love with a girl from the town
I thought that she would be true
I ran away to Charlottesville
And worked in a sawmill or two
What have they done to the old home place
Why did they tear it down
And why did I leave the plow in the field
And look for a job in the town
Well my girl she ran off with somebody else
The taverns took all my pay
And here I stand where the old home stood
Before they took it away
Now the geese they fly south and the cold wind blows
As I stand here and hang my head
I've lost my love I've lost my home
And now I wish that I was dead
What have they done to the old home place
Why did they tear it down
And why did I leave the plow in the field
And look for a job in the town
Written by Dean Webb & Mitchell Jayne

The Dillards would be proud of this version Great cover of a great song!

[@keithclark486]

How do you know they would? Why do people say that when someone else covers another musicians songs? Have they personally talked to that musician or do they just assume that?

[@stereovac]

If you could do a lesson on this one that would be insane

[@mandohat]

Where did you learn to sing like this? Ernie Sikes? Rick Skaggs? Old LRB? Who influenced you in this style of singing? You sound amazing, btw

[@tylernewborn7225]

How long till this is on a record??

[@chriskozub8012]

Can you or someone tab out the intro?

[@willyeverdie2731]

One hell of an original right here! Hands down without a doubt you're going to be famous af Zach. I got some original songs that i wrote i just can't sing always in key like you do but i bet you could. Hmu if you want to give it a listen. I got one of my 6 string set up like a dobro.
