Driva Man |
Driva' man he made a life |
But the Mamie ain’t his wife |
Choppin' cotton don’t be slow |
Better finish out your row |
Keep a movin' with that plow |
Driva' man’ll show ya how |
Git to work and root that stump |
Driva' man’ll make ya jump |
Better make your hammer ring |
Driva' man’ll start to swing |
Ain’t but two things on my mind |
Driva' man quittin' time |
Driva' man he made a life |
But the Mamie ain’t his wife |
Choppin' cotton don’t be slow |
Better finish out your row |
Keep a movin' with that plow |
Driva' man’ll show ya how |
Git to work and root that stump |
Driva' man’ll make ya jump |
Better make your hammer ring |
Driva' man’ll start to swing |
Ain’t but two things on my mind |
Driva' man quittin' time |
Driva' man de kind of boss |
Ride a man and lead a horse |
When his cat 'o nine tail fly |
You’d be happy just to die |
Runaway and you’ll be found |
By his big old red bone hound |
Pater oller bring ya back |
Make ya sorry you is black |
Driva' man he made a life |
But the Mamie ain’t his wife |
Ain’t but two things on my mind |
Driva' man and quittin' time… |
