Cotton Jenny Lyrics

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
In a soft southern flame

Oh, Cotton Jenny′s her name
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes 'round
As the 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 a new day begins
I go down to the cotton gin
And I make my time worthwhile 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 wheel of love goes ′round
As the 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
Wind and sea will shut my mouth
I can never be free from the cotton grain
But I know why God was made
With a soft southern flame

Oh, Cotton Jenny′s her name
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes 'round
As the 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

Wheels go 'round
'Round and ′round
