歌词
[Verse 1]
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
One dusty street to walk up and down
Nothin' much to see but a starvin' hound
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
[Verse 2]
Down in the delta where I was born
All we raised was cotton, potaters, and corn
I've picked cotton till my fingers hurt
Draggin' the sack through that delta dirt
[Verse 3]
And I've worked hard the whole week long
Pickin' my fingers to the blood and bone
There ain't a lot of money in a cotton bale
At least when you try to sell
[Verse 4]
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
One dusty street to walk up and down
Nothin' much to see but a starvin' hound
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
[Verse 5]
On Saturday nights, we'd get dressed up
Catch us a ride on a pickup truck
On a gravel road, it nearly strangled us
That cotton pickin' delta dust
[Verse 6]
We'd sit across the street on the depot porch
Lookin' at the folks lookin' back at us
Munchin' on a dust covered ice cream cone
Wonderin' how we'd get back home
[Verse 7]
From a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
One dusty street to walk up and down
Nothin' much to do but just hang around
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
[Verse 8]
From a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
One dusty street to walk up and down
Nothin' much to do but just to hang around
In a Mississippi cotton picking delta town
