Cotton

[Verse 1]
Get a late on this Sunday evenin'
Poor Lightin' gotta go home and take him some rest
Get a late on this Sunday evenin'
Poor Lightin' gotta go home and take some rest
You know I gotta pick cotton tomorrow Monday
Little girl you know that's gonna be a solid bet

[Verse 2]
Woah, I don't weigh but 95 pounds
100 pound is too much load for me to push
I don't weigh but 90 pound, boy
A 100 pound is too much load for me to push
I can straighten out in the field, it's too darn Lightnin'
Go 'head on boy and get your sack full
They was talkin' about cotton

[Bridge]
I get casual keen

[Verse 3]
I stood straight up in the field
Lookin' around tryin' to find me some shade
Woah, lord have mercy
Poor Lightnin' tryin' to find him some shade
Poor mama sittin' down with her pencil and paper
Figurin' up every dime that the family made
I'm gonna play it, play it on if you cut that out

[Verse 4]
My daddy was a sack shaker
Came at an eye straight down that road
Come out in Mississippi too
My daddy was a sack shaker
Came at an eye straight down that road
Woah, every time I go way up
He said "Go 'head, Lightnin', get me some more"
He was talkin' about cotton
Ah yeah
