[C#]
The southeast Georgia red clay dust [F#] is drowned into [C#] my blue jeans
A heavy hundred pound cotton sack I'm dragging long [G#] behind
[C#] Wanting to leave this place so bad [F#] I forget how [C#] I got here
Working [F#] my way [C#] back home one [G#] row [C#] at a time
[F#m] It's a [F#] long old cotton road between here and Waco
Then three days of thumbing to that [G#] California line
Then [C#] two more days of picking to [F#] that house just south [C#] of Fresno
Working [F#] my way [C#] back home [G#] one row [C#] at a time
Mississippi Delta mud [F#] is caked in layers on [C#] my broken
Sunshine on snow white cotton nearly [G#] makes me blind
I
[C#] can almost see them now, [F#] the home folk running out to meet [C#] me
Working [F#] my way [C#] back home
[G#] one row [C#] at a time
[F#] It's a long old cotton road between here and Waco
Then three days of thumbing to that California
[G#] line Lord, Lord
