James Lowery - Sleepin' In The Barn [Bootleg Version] Lyrics

Well, my woman done left me just the other day
Said the milk cow don't bring enough pay
Well, it sure gets cold, when ye sleepin' all alone
But a jar of corn liquor gonna keep me warm, wah ha ha ha haw

Well, the rooster won't crow and the hen won't lay
Cows ain't been milked all damn day
The garden needs watered and the sheep need sheared
The fields on fire and the guard dog's skeered
Sure is cold, sleepin' in the barn
But a jar of corn liquor gonna keep me warm

Haaaaaay, sleepin' in the haaaaaaay, h aaaaaay, sleepin' in the haaaaaaay

The mule won't pull and the horse won't neigh
Been down all my life, reckon that's where I'll stay
Mortgage past due, the tractor broke down
Might take to stealin' like a bum downtown
Cause it's too damn cold to be sleepin' in the barn
Done took another bottle to keep me warm

Well, I'm doin' alrite but everything's a goin' wrong
And it sho' get's cold.....
I'm still here and she still gone, boys, it sure gets cold sleepin' in the barn
I said haaaaaaay, sleepin' in the haaaaaaay. .I say haaaaaaay, sleepin' in the haaaaay
