Cotton Field
Woodruff County, Arkansas
the lyrics to the song are below the video
She, she came from the land of the cotton,
A land that was nearly forgotten by everyone,
She, she worked and she slaved so hard,
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun,
Oh, but she sure could sing,
Oh, she sure could sing.
Then he looked down and he took a little pity,
The whole town swore he decided
He'd help her some,
He didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty,
For deep inside his heart he knew
She was the only one,
Oh, but she sure could sing,
Oh, she sure could sing.
She had faith, she had believin',
She led all the people together in singin',
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above,
Singin' Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
They use to walk singin' songs by the river,
Even when she knew,
She'd have to go away,
She never knew what her life was to give her,
Never had to worry about it,
For one single day,
Oh, but she sure could sing,
Oh, sure could sing.
She had faith, she had believin',
Led all the people together in singin',
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above,
Singin' Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
Oh, she, she came from the land of the cotton,
Land that was nearly forgotten by everyone,
And she, she worked and she slaved so hard,
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun,
Oh, but she sure could sing,
Oh, she sure could sing,
My, my, my, but she sure could sing,
Oh, but she sure could sing.
