Song Of The South
by
Alabama
Song song of the South
Sweet potato pie and shut my mouth
Gone gone with the wind
Ain't nobody looking back again
Cotton on the roadside cotton in the ditch
We all picked cotton but we never got rich
Daddy was a veteran southern democrat
They oughta get a rich man to vote like that
Repeat #1
Well somebody told us that Wall Street fell
But we were so poor that we couldn't tel
Cotton was short and the weeds were tall
But Mr. Roosevelt was gonna save us all
Well momma got sick and daddy got down
The county got the farm and we moved to town
Papa got a job with the TVA
He bought a washing machine and then a Chevrolet
Repeat #1
