Lyrics Ain't No More Cane on the Brazos - The Band

Ain't No More Cane on the Brazos

Ain’t no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It’s all been ground down to molasses
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You should’ve been on the river in nineteen and ten
Ooh, ooh, ooh
They were drivin' the women just like they drove the men
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Go down Old Hannah, don’t you rise no more
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don’t you rise up 'til Judgment Day’s for sure
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ain’t no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It’s all been ground down to molasses
Oh, ooh, ooh
Captain, don’t you do me like you done poor old Shine
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well ya drove that bully 'til he went stone blind
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Wake up on a lifetime, hold up your own head
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, you may get a pardon and then you might drop dead
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ain’t no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It’s all been ground down to molasses
Ooh, ooh, ooh
