Lyrics
Ol' man seargent sittin' at the desk The damn ol' fool won't give us no rest He'd take the nickels off a dead man's eyes To buy a Coca-Cola an' a eskimo pie I got the blues, I got the blues I got the Winnsboro cotton mill blues Oh Lordy Lordy spoolin's hard You know and I know, we don't have to tell You work for Tom Watson gotta work like hell I got the blues, I got the blues I got the Winnsboro cotton mill blues When I die don't you bury me at all Hang me up on the schoolroom wall Place a bobbin in my hand So I can keep on a-workin' in the Promised Land I got the blues, I got the blues I got the Winnsboro cotton mill blues Oh Lordy Lordy spoolin's hard You know and I know, we don't have to tell You work for Tom Watson gotta work like hell I got the blues, I got the blues I got the Winnsboro cotton mill blues
