Lyrics:
To see waters glidin', hear the nightingale sing
Some like 'em light, some like 'em brown
Some like 'em thin as possible
Give me my sorghums thick 'n'
rack full of biscuits
Make my coffee black if you please
If you feed me out of Dixie in a style so grand
You'll have yourself a happy man
Sorghum
I see something there, you liked it, too
And waited there, I did, for you
Sorghum I set about
Sorghum I set about
Sorghum I set about
For you, he
All I know
Is the sorghum grows
And the mortgage lows
Back home
For all I know
Are the mortar rows
That the Oregon flows
Back home
But time isn't
yeah i'ma go incognito on this joint here yeah
do you remember
the sorghum breakfast treat
referred to as grits
but it looks like cream of wheat
sew and could mend
My daddy owned an interest in that old sorghum mill
Just-a watchin' all that money roll in
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
a little cane
Raise a barrel of Sorghum,
To sweeten ol' Liza Jane.
Yonder comes that gal of mine,
How do you think I know
I know by that gingham gown,
daddy owned an interest in that old sorghum mill
Just-a watchin' all that money roll in
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
a little cane
Raise a barrel of Sorghum sweet lil' Liza Jane.
Black cloud's a-risin' surest sign of rain
Get the old grey bonnet on Little Liza Jane.
a little cane
Raise a barrel of sorghum
Sweet little Liza Jane
Black clouds arising
Sure sign of rain
Put that old gray bonnet
On little Liza
operator Sister could sew and could mend My daddy owned an interest in that old sorghum mill Just-a watchin' all that money roll in Roll in my sweet baby's
sew and could mend
My daddy owned an interest in that old sorghum mill
Just-a watchin' all that money roll in
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
of sorghum
He'll know exactly what you mean
He'll meet you in the back of the woods at midnight
Bring a lantern 'cause it's hard to find
He's got
him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
Goin' on a mountain
To sow a little cane
Raise a barrel of Sorghum
Sweet little
It's sweet as sorghum syrup and good ol' blue ribbon cane
She gives me lots of sugar and she never spill a grain
She's my Texarkana baby
She's my
I'm gone
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
Rollin' down the mountain
To sow a little cain
Raise a barrel of sorghum
Sweet
Montana night
We buried mama late that summer
Up beside ole sorghum creek
Not before I made a promise
And that's a promise I must keep
Cause I'm leaving
the sorghum liquor to its bottle
And the bottle to the mud, and the grass in the air
That pricks my nose and burns my tongue
I'll return to the field
Vs. 1
Goin' down the mountain to see that gal of mine
Lives in the holler, sweet little clementine
Sorghum molasses, wild honey from the trees
crow
She sang while she worked and I'm sorry to say
I'm glad she can't hear what I'm singin today
They dug up a part of the old sorghum mill
and some lonely quiet corners, yeah!
Love will be the message the sky will be my forum
I see a victory as sweet as tea, like southern sorghum
I'm living in
and a hickory grove to burn in my cooking and heating stove and that’s ok
And I got me some wheat for my winter’s bread, and a sorghum patch for my sweetening
and Pellegrino's have to stay cool. Cheddar cornbread and Sorghum butter too, You know what it's hotter up in here than the Sous. Have to clean Home Base, and got
A kaleidoscope of hungry brats
With sorghum stashed in paper bags
Too much sugar makes you sick
Take us back to stones and sticks
Take us back to treats
