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 o 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
Weathers gonna break and hells gonna fly
Baby  sweet thing  darling

Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill  honey

Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill  baby

Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill
Won't clear a greenback dollar bill

Baby  sweet thing  darling

Work shade and back to the buzzard wing  honey

Work shade and back to the buzzard wing  baby

Work shade and 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
