| I was workin' at Franklins field picking cotton picking greens the sun
|
| Came down
|
| I had to pass you to grind up his cornmeal and every time I did I wish
|
| You could stay around we were just two slaves in a crowded field of slaves
|
| Me a housemaid but we had such a jones for each other ironically in
|
| The midst of these conditions there’s still love
|
| Conditional love ironically in the midst of these conditions
|
| Conditional love
|
| Matter of fact I’d risk being abused by the overseer for a moment to get
|
| To know your life I mean our lives ain’t that important your physical
|
| Life is the same ol' bad condition as mine but I’m talking bout your
|
| Dreams the things that can’t be taken by no one your love
|
| Conditional love ironically in the midst of these conditions
|
| Conditional love |
