Lyrics Winsborro Cotton Mill Blues - Pete Seeger
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
