Travis Tritt Where Corn Don't Grow Comments
  1. K.... M....

    This song "Where Corn Don´t Grow" is one of the best country songs ever!

  2. K.... M....

    Absolute PERFECT

  3. B.... B....

    As we sat on the front porch
    Of that old grey house where I was born and raised.
    Staring at the dusty fields
    Where my Daddy worked hard every day
    I think it kinda hurt him when I said,
    "Daddy there's a lot that I don't know
    But don't you ever dream about a life
    Where corn don't grow?"
    He just sat there silent
    Staring at his favorite coffee cup
    I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes
    When he looked up.
    He said "Son I know at your age
    It seems like this ole world is turnin' slow.
    And you think you'll find the answer to it all
    Where corn don't grow."
    Hard times are real
    There's dusty fields no matter where you go
    You may change your mind
    'Cause the weeds are high where corn don't grow
    I remember feeling guilty
    When Daddy turned and walked back in the house
    I was only seventeen back then
    But I thought that I knew more than I know now
    I can't say he didn't warn me
    This city life's a hard row to hoe
    Ain't it funny how a dream can turn around,
    Where corn don't grow
    Hard times are real
    There's dusty fields no matter where you go
    And you may change your mind
    'Cause the weeds are high where corn don't grow
    You may change your mind
    Oh the weeds are high where corn don't grow

  21. D.... B....

    Go ahead Travis ..
    Tell us about growing corn
    or not

    D.... B....

    It was orginally done by Waylon Jennings

  22. E.... P....

    Travis is underrated , this is from when country was country , and he never got his due . and I wish they still made music like this instead of taydor swiff .

    E.... P....

    Earls Pearl

    It's not that he didn't get hs due it is the fact that Travis never sold out for the 50 million dollar check.
    When you sell out you sell your soul to lucifer.
    Bob Dylan tells it straight out and recently Miley Cyrus told her fans this.

    Travis is not a satanist, he is a family man for Jesus.
    The industry shuns you if you do not sell out.

    Dave Chappell has a few good interviews where he states this.
    It is a sad sad world we live in.

    The US gov worships the dark side too.
    Anton LeVay. 👹

    I fell in love with Travis when he first came out in the late 80's.
    I bought it on cassette and jammed to in my Camaro. 💞

  23. T.... ....

    Wearing all that Leather WILL make you sweat...

    T.... ....

    Add all the stage lights that are blazing hot and most most musicians don’t stand a chance. Love me some Travis he is a good man and great musician.

  24. B.... O....

    I seen an interview with John Force and he said this was one of his favorite songs , he was a good ole' country boy growing up .

  25. S.... T....

    Great song and a good job Travis Tritt, love you

    Travis Tritt is a A legendary performer..#1 in Country Music as far as I am concerned..

  41. K.... F....

    Idk why he plays it with a capo live but standard tuning on the album. This version is way better than the album. He’s also the only person Waylon Jennings let cut this song. Steve Wariner and Joe Diffie wanted to do it as well

  42. V.... C....

    love your music......BEST OF THE BEST!!!!!

  43. A.... L....

    This man can really sing but he is in bad need of A haircut.

    James Travis Tritt (born February 9, 1963) is an American country music singer, songwriter, and actor. He signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1989, releasing seven studio albums and a greatest hits package for the label between then and 1999. In the 2000s, he released two albums on Columbia Records and one for the now defunct Category 5 Records. Seven of his albums (counting the Greatest Hits) are certified platinum or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America. James Travis Tritt was born on February 9, 1963 in Marietta, Georgia, to James and Gwen Tritt. He first took interest in singing after his church's Sunday school choir performed "Everything Is Beautiful."[3] He received his first guitar at age eight and taught himself how to play it; in the fourth grade, he performed "Annie's Song" and "King of the Road" for his class, and later got invited to play for other classrooms in his school.[4] At age fourteen, his parents bought him another guitar, and he learned more songs from his uncle, Sam Lockhart.[5] Later on, Tritt joined his church band, which occasionally performed at other churches nearby.[6]

    Tritt began writing music while he was attending Sprayberry High School; his first song composition, entitled "Spend a Little Time", was written about a girlfriend whom he had broken up with.[7] He performed this song for his friends, one of whom complimented him on his songwriting skills.[8] He also founded a bluegrass group with some of his friends, and won second place in a local tournament for playing "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys".[9]

    During his teenage years, Tritt worked at a furniture store, and later as a supermarket clerk. He lived with his mother after she and his father divorced; they remarried each other when he was eighteen.[10] He worked at an air conditioning company while playing in clubs, but gave up the air conditioning job at the suggestion of one of his bandmates.[11] Tritt's father thought that Tritt would not find success as a musician, while his mother thought that he should perform Christian music instead of country.[1]

    Through the assistance of Warner Bros. Records executive Danny Davenport, Tritt began recording demos. The two worked together for the next several years, eventually putting together a demo album called Proud of the Country.[1][12] Davenport sent the demo to Warner Bros. representatives in Los Angeles, who in turn sent the demo to Warner Bros.' Nashville division, which signed Tritt in 1987.[13] Davenport also helped Tritt find a talent manager, Ken Kragen. At first, Kragen was "not interested in taking an entry-level act," but he decided to sign on as Tritt's manager after Kragen's wife convinced him.[14] Tritt's first acting role was in the 1993 made-for-television movie Rio Diablo.[68] In 1994, Tritt made a special appearance as a bull rider in the movie The Cowboy Way, which starred Woody Harrelson and Kiefer Sutherland. In 1995, he appeared in season 6 of the horror anthology series Tales from the Crypt in the episode called Doctor of Horror. He also starred in a guest role on Yes, Dear as a rehabilitating criminal.[69] The following year, Tritt appeared as himself in Sgt. Bilko, which starred Steve Martin, Dan Aykroyd and Phil Hartman;[70] Tritt's cover of "Only You (And You Alone)" appeared in the film's soundtrack.[71] He also made an appearance in the 1997 film Fire Down Below, starring Steven Seagal and Kris Kristofferson.[72] In 1998, In 1999 tritt appeared in outlaw justice with willie nelson, waylon Jennings, and kris Kristofferson .Tritt appeared in the film Blues Brothers 2000 as one of the Louisiana Gator Boys. Finally, In September 2010, filming began on a movie called Fishers of Men, a Christian film.[73] Regarding his songwriting style and single choices, Tritt said that he writes "strictly from personal experiences" and does not follow a particular formula.[79] He described "Here's a Quarter" as "one of the simplest three-chord waltzes I've ever written,"[80] and said that label executives were reluctant to release it because they thought that it was a novelty song.[81] Also, he was told that "I'm Gonna Be Somebody" would not be a hit because it did not contain any rhymes,[82] and fought the release of the song "Country Club" because he did not think that it fit his style.[83] He also said that, despite their low peaks, the more rock-influenced "Put Some Drive in Your Country" and "T-R-O-U-B-L-E" helped generate sales for their respective albums more so than the top ten hits from those albums.[84] Tritt married his high school sweetheart, Karen Ryon,[85] in September 1982, and moved into an apartment with her. They stayed together for two years, while Tritt worked at an air conditioning company and Karen at a Burger King, and divorced two years later.[86] After going to court, Tritt was ordered to pay alimony to Karen for six months.[87] When he was 21, he married a woman named Jodi Barnett,[88] who was 33 at the time.[89] He divorced her shortly after signing with Warner Bros. in 1989; the divorce finalized one month before "Country Club" was released. Tritt wrote the song "Here's a Quarter" the night he received his divorce papers.[90]

    He married Theresa Nelson on April 12, 1997.[48] They have two sons: Tristan James (born June 16, 1999) and Tarian Nathaniel (born November 20, 2003),[91] and one daughter, Tyler Reese (born February 18, 1998).[48]

    Political views and advocacy
    Tritt is a member of the Republican Party and supported George W. Bush for President in 2000. The two met in 1996 at the Republican National Convention in San Diego, California, where Tritt sang the national anthem.[92] Tritt told Insight on the News, that he is a strong supporter of Second Amendment rights and believes the answer to crime is not gun control but criminal control. "I'm a pro-gun guy. I'm an NRA National Rifle Association member, a life member as a matter of fact. I'm more for the belief of making the punishment tougher for the criminals to start with. I think that sends much more of an incentive for people to not commit crimes of any type than taking away guns. Because you take away guns, and the next thing you know, stabbing murders are going to increase." He adds that he is "definitely pro-death penalty."[93]

    Thank you Wes, I appreciate you sharing all this about Travis early life.
    I bought his first album on cassette and jammed in my Camaro. 💞
    I still attend his concerts when he comes to Vegas, front row, right up against the stage.
    It is Amazing being that close to him and hearing him play that guitar (pick) and sing. 💞
