Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys and Bob Wills - Cotton Patch Blues

Oh
Yeah

Sittin' on this plow day dreamin'
Thinkin' of the weeks to come
Ole cotton patch is hot
Can't think of a worse spot
To be on a hot summer day

I hear you talkin', boy

Next week I will get my hoe down (oh)
I'll hit the field at break of day (yes)
That will be so sad
My feet will hurt so bad (that's right)
When I chop the cotton all the day

Talk on, brother, talk on

Mules been a bawkin'
They're tired of walkin'
Up and down this cotton row so straight
But they should pull their best
'Cause soon they'll get a rest
They don't have very long to wait

When the pickin' starts this fall
I'll need my cotton sack that's all (you said it, brother)
My back will nearly break
From draggin' all this weight
When I start to pickin' cotton this fall

Oh Jody
Oh fiddle, yeah

Mules been a bawkin'
They're tired of walkin'
Up and down this cotton row so straight
They should pull their best
'Cause soon they'll get a rest
They don't have very long to wait

When the pickin' starts this fall
I'll need my cotton sack that's all (oh)
My back will nearly break
From draggin' all this weight
When I start to pickin' cotton this fall
