Way out there in the cotton,
Sun beatin` down so hard.
Sweat rollin`off of this shovel,
Diggin` in the Devil`s boneyard.
Sure like a cool drink a water,
soft rag to cool my face.
Sure like a woman to talk to...
in this place.
Chorus:
It`s a hundred and ten,
Hundred and ten in the shade.
Goin` way down, mama won`t you carry me.
Handle so hot I can`t stand it.
Might shrivel up and blow away.
Noonday sun make you crazy,
`least that`s what the old men say.
Bottomland hard as a gravestone.
Couldn`t cut it with an axe!
Gonna lay me down right here,
and that` a fact!
Chorus (twice)
Sometimes late in the evenin`
Everything is quiet and still.
I set here and think about leavin`,
Lord, I guess I never will.
Heartache down in that city.
Bright lights scares me anyhow.
Sure like a woman to talk to...
in this place.
