I never picked cotton
D7
G
Working in a coal mine
D7
G
Till they couldn’t straighten their backs
D7
G
In that Oklahoma sun
G
I never picked cotton
D7
G
Working in a coal mine
D7
G
And I never went back again
D7
G
And I took it all with a gun
G
I never picked cotton
D7
G
Working in a coal mine
D7
G
I left him lying in the dirt
D7
G
I can look back on with pride
G
I never picked cotton
D7
G
Working in a coal mine
D7
