AboutBeth Burgess Expertise I can answer just about any question about lyrics or the artists who recorded the songs--80s and 90s country especially. I don't watch many new videos, but the older the video question, the more likely I am to be able to answer it.
Experience I've been a country music fan for all of my 25 years! I somehow have a knack for being able to remember all the words to all the songs (and who sang them for the most part) even though I can't carry a tune to save my life!
Education/Credentials I'm currently enrolled in law school (so if I can't remember an answer off the top of my head, I have excellent research skills!)
It'll come back but not sure some of the lyrics
When our little girl turned 17 I built her a pool in the back yard that spring all the kids they came and thet swam and they splashed I fussed at her 'cause it killed all the grass itll come back daddy dont be mad 'cause god and the rain will bring it back
Answer Hi Don! The song you're looking for is called "It'll Come Back," and it was recorded by Red Sovine in 1974. Hope this helps!

IT'LL COME BACK
(Written by Glenn Martin)
On our little girls' third birthday
She got a sandbox in the backyard to play
Sand was everywhere as she played and she laughed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass.
CHORUS:
It'll come back ...
It'll come back ...
Daddy dont be mad
God and the rain will bring it back.
When our little girl just turned ten
She got a bike to ride with all her friends
She skinned both her knees as she played and she laughed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass.
When our little girl turned seventeen
We built her a pool in the backyard that spring
All her friends came and they swam and they splashed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass.
My wife and I sit on the porch all alone
As I look out across at my beautiful lawn
The house is quiet there's no children at play
And I said to my wife
(Spoken:) Honey, if you'll listen real close
You can still hear her say."
It'll come back (It'll come back)
It'll come back (It'll come back)
Daddy don't be mad
God and the rain will bring it back.
It'll come back (It'll come back)
It'll come back (It'll come back)
Daddy don't be mad
God and the rain will bring it back.
