Since I was a little boy
My father used to tell me
I'm his pride 'n' joy
I was almost ten when my
Father he came in
He told me son you should know
The shape I'm in
I was almost ten when my
Father he came in
I work so hard son to earn for livin'
Then he took me out with him
Out in the cotton fields
To show me how babe
To plant the seeds
Then he took me out with him
Out in the cotton fields
That's the way my father
He taught me the blues
Well he taught me the
The hard workin' way
How to work with naked hands
Both night and day
You know he taught me
The hard workin' way
That's the way my father
He taught me the blues
You know I work so hard babe Since I was a little boy My father used to tell me I'm his pride 'n' joy I was almost ten when my Father he came in He told me son you should know The shape I'm in I was almost ten when my Father he came in I work so hard son to earn for livin' Then he took me out with him Out in the cotton fields To show me how babe To plant the seeds Then he took me out with him Out in the cotton fields That's the way my father He taught me the blues Well he taught me the The hard workin' way How to work with naked hands Both night and day You know he taught me The hard workin' way That's the way my father He taught me the blues Explain Request ×
