A bit a pitty the lyrics were not available, but I can figure out what was the topic.
Very nicely done,

I added the lyrics to the SC post.... but.....

I was born in the country in a house that was old and gray.
We had an old porch across the front and that's where we sat all day
We worked real hard in the sun and we don't have nothing to prove
We'd lay in bed and we'd sleep at night and hear the rain on our old tin roof

Night time fell my mom and dad would lay us down to rest
My mom would smile and tell us boys now don't forget to say your prayers
My dad would wink and point outside and say you know what to do.
Lay your head down and close your eyes and hear the rain on an old tin roof

Because things were so much different then, we always had something to do.
We'd lay in bed and sleep at night and wake up to the morning dew
I'll always remember what my poppa said he said you know what to do.
Lay your head down and close your eyes and hear the rain on an old tin roof

solo

Time passed on, I grew up and I knew I would have to go
I traveled around this great big world but I knew I'd have to come back home.
I met a little girl and we fell in love, bought us a brand new house
It has a new porch across the front and we know what love is all about
Because we work real hard in the sun and we don't have nothing to prove.
We lay in bed and we love at night and hear the rain on our new tin roof

Because things were so much different then, we always had something to do.
We'd lay in bed and sleep at night and wake up to the morning dew
I'll always remember what my poppa said he said you know what to do.
Lay your head down and close your eyes and hear the rain on an old tin roof
