bobby bare – song of the south lyrics
cotton on the roadside cotton in the ditch
we all picked the cotton but we never got rich
daddy was a veteran a southern democrat
said they oughta kill a rich man to vote like that.
sing a song, song of the south
sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
gone, gone with the wind
ain’t n-body looking back again.
well, i was eighteen fore i ate my fill
we lied on the garden and the cow’s good will
winter was wet and the summer was dry
and mama she was old at thirty-five.
somebody told us wall street fell
so d-mn poor we couldn’t even tell
cotton was short and the weeds were tall
mr. roosevelt’s gonna save us all.
sing a song, song of the south
sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
gone, gone with the wind
ain’t n-body looking back again.
mama got sick and daddy got down
county got the farm and they moved to town
daddy took a job with the tva
bought a washin’ machine and a chevrolet.
sing a song, song of the south
sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
gone, gone with the wind
ain’t n-body looking back again.
sing a song, song of the south
sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
gone, gone with the wind
ain’t n-body looking back again.
sing a song, song of the south
sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
gone, gone with the wind
ain’t n-body looking back again…
