[D]
[Dm] [Gm] [D]
Way out here in the cotton, [Am] sun beating [D] down so hard
Sweat rolling over the shovel, [Am] digging in the devil's bone, [D] yeah
[Dm] [G] Sure like a cool drink of water, [F] soft rag that soothes my face
[D] Sure like [A] a woman to talk to [D] in this place
[F] [D] There's a hundred and ten, [G] hundred and [D] ten in the [C] shade
[D] Going way [A] down, mama won't you carry [Am] me
[D] Handles so hard I can't stand it, I shrivel up and blow away
Noonday sun make you crazy, [Am] at least that's what the old [D] men say
[G] Bottom line, hard as a gravestone, [Bb] couldn't [C] cut it with an axe
[Dm] [D] Gonna lay me down [A] right here, that's [D] a fact
[C] [D] There's a hundred and ten, [G] hundred and ten in [D] the shade
Going way down, [A] mama [G] won't you [Am] carry me
[F] [D] There's a hundred and ten, [Bm] hundred [Am] and ten in the shade
[D] Going way down, mama won't you carry [Am] me
[D] [Am] [D] [F] Yeah, [D] oh yeah
Sometimes late in the evening, [Am] everything is [D] quiet and still
Sit here and think about leaving, [Am] Lord I guess I never [C] will
[D] [G] Party down in that city, [Bb] red light scares me anyway
[D] Sure [A] like a woman to talk to [Dm] in this place
[Dm] [D] There's a hundred and ten, [G] hundred and ten in the shade
[Am] [D] Going way down, [Am] mama won't you carry [C] me
[F] [D] There's a hundred and ten, [G] hundred and ten in [Am] the shade
[Gm] [D] Going way [G] down, [A] mama [Dm] won't you carry [D] me
There's a hundred [G] and ten, hundred and ten in [Dm] the shade
[D] Going way down, [Am] mama [Dm] won't you carry [G] me
[B] There's [D] a hundred and ten, [G] hundred [N] and ten in the shade
[D] Going way [Db] down, mama [D] won't you carry me
