Jesus Was Our Saviour and Cotton Was Our King - Billy Joe Shaver[00:00:00]
Written by:Billy Joe Shaver[00:00:03]
Wagon wheels are turning with cobble colored sound[00:00:05]
When me and little Tommy rode the first load in the town[00:00:10]
The cotton gin was ginning out the pennies for the pounds[00:00:16]
Like a giant vacuum cleaner sucking let up off the ground[00:00:20]
Our freckled faces sparkled then like diamonds in the rough[00:00:26]
With smiles it smells of snaggle teeth and good old Garrett snuff[00:00:31]
If I could I would be trading all this fat back for the lean[00:00:37]
When Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king[00:00:42]
This kind of life we're living beats all I've ever seen[00:00:48]
Seems some of us was born for picking things and eaten beans[00:00:53]
Still I reckon girl or digging fairly well in our means[00:00:58]
Cause Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king[00:01:03]
Our freckled faces sparkled then like diamonds in the rough[00:01:09]
With smiles it smells of snaggle teeth and good old Garrett snuff[00:01:14]
If I could I would be trading all this fat back for the lean[00:01:20]
When Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king[00:01:25]
