[verse 1]
it was on an indiana farm
in the middle of the country
growing in the fields of grain
jim dean of indiana

[verse 2]
his mother died when he was a boy
his father was a stranger
marcus winslow took him in
n0body seemed to want him

[verse 3]
the hired man sang like a storm
sometimes he would beat him
’cause he would never do the chores
he was lost in dreaming

[verse 4]
he never seemed to find a place
with the flatlands and the farmer
so he had to leave one day
he said to be an actor

[verse 5]
oncе he came back to the farm
with starlеts from the stages
they locked themselves inside his room
the people turned their faces
[verse 6]
a neighbor run from the movie house
chickens, they were scattered
he swore he saw upon the screen
jim dean of indiana

[verse 7]
he played a boy without a home
torn with no tomorrow
reaching out to touch someone
a stranger in the shadow

[verse 8]
the winslows left for the movie town
they drove across the country
they hoped that he would stay around
and they hoped he would be friendly

[verse 9]
he talked to them for half an hour
but he was busy racing
he left for the grapevine road
they left for indiana

[verse 10]
then marcus heard on the radio
that a movie star was dying
he turned the tuner way down low
so ortense could go on sleeping
[verse 11]
was not until they reached the farm
where the hired man was waiting
the wind was silent through the grain
it was just like they had told him

[verse 12]
they buried him just down the road
just a mile from the farmhouse
and that is where phil placed a flower
for jim dean of indiana
