| When you go to work well you work like the devil | |
| At the end of the week you're not on the level | |
| Payday comes, you ain't got a penny | |
| 'Cause when you pay your bills you got so many | |
| I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will | |
| 'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill | |
| When you buy clothes on easy terms | |
| Collector treats you like a measly worm | |
| One dollar down and the Lord knows | |
| If you can't make a payment, they take your clothes | |
| I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will | |
| 'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill | |
| Payday comes, you pay your rent | |
| End of the week you ain't got a cent | |
| To buy fat-backed meat, pinto beans | |
| Cook up a mess o' turnip greens | |
| I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will | |
| 'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill | |
| Ashes to ashes and dust to dust | |
| Let the rich man live and the poor man bust | |
| We'll never make it, we never will | |
| As long as we work in a rounding mill | |
| I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will | |
| 'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill |
