Songtexte Cotton Mill Colic - Pete Seeger
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
