Lyrics:
named Abner Brown
And nobody knew when he came to town
But he spread good will to his fellow men
And they let him sleep in the cotton gin
He could drink
the swimmin’ hole off of cotton gin road
Makin’ bets on dreams we had that weren’t too far away
But I never worked as hard as I played
On those country summer
come along way since then
Now I own that cotton gin
And I bought that mill
Just to make her smile
And to keep our love from growin' old
We still
come along way since then
Now I own that cotton gin
And I bought that mill
Just to make her smile
And to keep our love from growin' old
We still
go down to the cotton gin
And I make my time worth while to them
Then I climb back up again
And she waits by the door
Oh Cotton Jenny I'm sore
He goes down to the cotton gin
And he make his time worth while to them
Then he climbs back up again
And she waits by the door
Oh cotton jenny he's
Old man cotton won't let me make a nickel
Till I get it to a cotton gin
So I bent my back till I think it's gonna break
Try to keep a thinkin' how much

At a Bar on Paradise Row
Mama got a job in the cotton gin

Lost these fingers in a Kruger cotton gin
With my thumb and my pinky I

moved into town
To a shack by the train depot
Jack got a job as a bouncer
At a bar on Paradise Row
Mama got a job in the cotton gin
Grading cotton by
Wagon wheels are turning with
Cobble colored sound
When me and little Tommy rode the
First load in the town
The cotton gin was ginning out
the cotton gin - but no one ever paid me - Why beat a dead horse - with a career that is cursed? - I'll just sue for royalties - on things I thought of first -
him a cotton boll
He move all his kin folk in
He found a place that is mighty snug
Down by the cotton gin
Well the bee's got a home in the honey
And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms.
