|
There's a house on a hill |
|
By a worn down weathered old mill |
|
In the valley below where the river winds |
|
There's no such thing as bad times |
|
And a soft southern flame |
|
Oh cotton jenny's her name |
|
She wakes me up when the sun goes down |
|
And the wheels of love go 'round |
|
Wheels of love go 'round |
|
Love go 'round, love go 'round |
|
A joyful sound |
|
I ain't got a penny for cotton jenny to spend |
|
But then the wheels go 'round |
|
When the new day begins |
|
I go down to the cotton gin |
|
And i make my time worth while to them |
|
Then i climb back up again |
|
And she waits by the door |
|
Oh cotton jenny i'm sore |
|
And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down |
|
And the wheels of love go 'round |
|
Wheels of love go 'round |
|
Love go 'round, love go 'round |
|
A joyful sound |
|
I ain't got a penny for cotton jenny to spend |
|
But then the wheels go 'round |
|
In the hot, sickly south |
|
When they say we'll shut my mouth |
|
I can never be free from the cotton grind |
|
But i know i got what's mine |
|
She's a soft southern flame |
|
Oh cotton jenny's her name |
|
She wakes me up when the sun goes down |
|
And the wheels of love go 'round |
|
Wheels of love go 'round |
|
Love go 'round, love go 'round |
|
A joyful sound |
|
I ain't got a penny for cotton jenny to spend |
|
But then the wheels go 'round |
