Just Plain Folks - Tex Morton
To a mansion in the city came a couple old and gray
To meet their son who left them long ago
He had prospered and grown wealthy
Since in youth he ran away
And now his life was one of pomp and show
But coldly did he greet them for rich friends
Were by his side
Who often heard him boast of home so grand
But the old man sadly looked at him
And said in modest pride
As he gently took his dear wife by the hand
We are just plain folks your mother and me
Just plain folks like our own folks used to be
As our presence seems to grieve you
We will go away and leave you
For we're sadly out of place here
'Cause we're just plain folks
'Taint so long ago
Since you were just a simple country lad
And did the work that country lads should do
In those days you never looked with shame
On mother and old dad
In fact my boy we both were proud of you
But something must have changed you
For your wealth has brought vain pride
Still riches sometimes take swift wings they say
But you'll always find a hearty
Welcome at your parents side
They will greet you in the same old loving way
We are just plain folks your mother and me
Just plain folks like our own folks used to be
As our presence seems to grieve you
We will go away and leave you
For we're sadly out of place here
'Cause we're just plain folks
