Cotton Mill Colic - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

When you go to work well you work like the devil[00:00:05]

At the end of the week you're not on the level[00:00:07]

Payday comes you ain't got a penny[00:00:09]

'Cause when you pay your bills you got so many[00:00:12]

I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will[00:00:14]

'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill[00:00:16]

When you buy clothes on easy terms[00:00:33]

Collector treats you like a measly worm[00:00:35]

One dollar down and the Lord knows[00:00:38]

If you can't make a payment [00:00:40]

They take your clothes[00:00:41]

I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will[00:00:42]

'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill[00:00:44]

Payday comes you pay your rent[00:00:52]

End of the week you ain't got a cent[00:00:53]

To buy fat-backed meat pinto beans[00:00:56]

Cook up a mess o' turnip greens[00:00:58]

I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will[00:01:00]

'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill[00:01:03]

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust[00:01:16]

Let the rich man live and the poor man bust[00:01:18]

We'll never make it we never will[00:01:20]

As long as we work in a rounding mill[00:01:23]

I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will[00:01:26]

'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill[00:01:28]
