Cotton Patch Blues |
| I left my baby in Mississippi |
| Pickin' cotton down on her knee |
| I left my babe in Mississippi |
| Whoo-ooo, pickin' cottton down on her knee |
| Yeah |
| She said, 'Babe, you get Chicago all right |
| Pleee-ase right me a letter, if you please |
| Yeah |
| I said, 'Baby that’s alright |
| Baby, that’s alright for you' |
| I said, 'Baby that’s al-ri-yi-yight |
| That’s alright for you' |
| She didn’t say, 'Wha'ch a-mean? |
| ' |
| You just keep a-pickin' cotton, right there |
| Oh babe, should I get through |
| Yeah |
| Now, I’m 'on leave Mississippi |
| Hopin' I might flag a ride |
| Wh' she say? |
| I said, I 'on leave Mississippi, baby |
| Hopin' I might flag a ride |
| An if I don’t get nobody |
| Oh babe, I’m gon' pass on by |
| 'Play that bossman' |
| (guitar) |
| Yeah |
| Ye-aah |
| Babe, when I get in Chicago |
| I’d a-swear I’m 'on take a train |
| 'Take your time now and play it right |
| 'a 'cause it’s last go round' |
| When I get in Chicago, babe |
| I’d a-swear I’m 'on take a train |
| Yeah |
| I know when I get back to Mississippi |
| I’m sure gonna change yo' name |
