The Panhandlers - Where Cotton Is King Lyrics

Coffee black before the sun
C Whole lotta work that's gotta get done
Put 'em in the ground and hope the hail don't come
Right now it don't look like much
Just lonely rows and mounds of dust
But sleeping underneath is a seed of boom or bust

So I tend the fields
I dig a ditch
I'm a sand fighting son of a bitch
Serving out my sentence on the plains

Where Cotton is King

Mother Nature, She's the Queen
She'll grant your wish and haunt your dreams
Brought the boll weevil stripped us clean
Bank put a lean on the family land
But I ain't scared of a Company Man
I'm taking it back
I'm making my stand

So I tend the fields
I dig a ditch
I'm a sand-fighting sunnuva bitch
Cll I've got to lose is everything

Where Cotton is King
Where Cotton is King

Back section breaking down
Diesel leaking on the ground
Heavy lies the head that wears the crown

I tend the fields
I dig a ditch
I'm a sand fighting sunnuva bitch
Four generations praying for the rain

Where Cotton is King
Where Cotton is King
Where Cotton is King
