Here's a Joe Diffie tune-not sure about the first part
of the chorus-any corrections welcome.

Joe Diffie John Deere Green


They were farm kids way down in Dixie

                                 
They met in high school in the sixties

                                   
Everyone knew it was love from the start

One July in the midnight hour

He climbed upon the water tower
                                              
Stood on the rail and painted a ten foot heart

chorus
            
In John Deere Green
               
On a hot summer night
                       
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
                      
In letters three foot high

        
And the whole town said
        
that he should had used red
                         
But it looked good to Charlene
             
in John Deere Green


They settled down on eighty acres
Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes
They went together like a hand and a glove
On a clear day from their front yard
He you look and know what to look for
Off to the east you can still read his words of love
