(Tony Martin&Carl Sweat&Brenda Sweat)
Jacob was a dirt poor farm boy
Raised at the fork in the road in a clapboard house
And Rachael was a land barons daughter
Born with a silver spoon in her mouth
Her daddy said he wouldnt stand
For Rachael to waste her life with a common man

He tried hard to keep them apart
But you cant draw lines in a young girls heart
So late one night by the harvest moon
Jacob climed a ladder up to Rachaels room
He knew his place, it was right beside her
Step by step up to her world
Head over heels for a brown-eyed girl
And gettin caught didnt seem to matter
