Four Cent Cotton
Goin’ down the road, a-whoopin’ and a-hollerin’ I got drunk on four-cent cotton [ Hey, hey four-cent cotton Hey, hey four-cent cotton ] Woke up this mornin’ feelin kinda rotten, I got drunk on four-cent cotton. Times is hard, they’re gettin kinda rotten, Everybody’s sellin four cent cotton.

Fifteen Cents
I left my home in Tennessee, Thought I’d learn to travel, But then I met a pretty little girl And soon we played the devil I loved that gal and she loved me And I thought we’d live together But then we tied that fatal knot And now I’m gone forever. Chorus: Gimme back my […]

Up in the window light tonight Where I can see your silhouette I’ve been throwin’ little stones But I don’t believe you’ve even heard me yet Today you crossed your heart And said you’d meet me in the dark When I called you on the phone You pretended you weren’t home Hey baby, what do […]
