Black wind blowing in the cotton field,
honey
There's a black wind blowing in the
cotton field,
baby
There's a black wind blowing in the cotton field,
and oh how funny it makes me feel,
baby
Sweet thing,
darling
There's a long black cloud hanging in
the sky,
honey
There's a long black cloud hanging in the sky,
baby
There's a long black cloud hanging in the sky,
when it's gonna break and hell's gonna fly,
baby
Sweet thing,
darling
Cotton's pretty thin, yonder on the hill,
honey
Cotton's pretty thin, yonder on the hill,
baby
Cotton's pretty thin,
yonder on the hill,
it won't clear the
greenback dollar bill
Sweet thing,
darling
Work shading back to the buzzard wing,
honey
Work shading back to the buzzard wing, baby
Work shading back to the buzzard wing,
clouds are gonna bust and cry down rain,
baby
Sweet thing,
darling
There's a black wind blowing in the cotton
field,
honey There's a black wind blowing in the cotton
field,
baby
There's a black wind blowing in the cotton
field, and oh how funny it makes me feel, baby
Sweet thing,
darling
