Gordon Lightfoot Cotton Jenny Lyrics
There's a house on a hill
By a worn-down weathered old mill
In the valley below where the river winds
There's no such thing as bad times
And a soft southern flame
Oh! Cotton Jenny's her name
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes 'round
Wheel of love go 'round
Love go 'round, love go 'round
A joyful sound
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But, then, the wheels go 'round
When the new day begins
I go down to the cotton gin
And I make my time worth while to them
Then I climb back up again
Then she waits by the door
"Oh! Cotton Jenny, I'm sore"
And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes 'round
Wheels of love go 'round
Love go 'round, love go 'round
A joyful sound
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But, then, the wheels go 'round
In the hot, sickly South
When they say, "Well, shut my mouth!"
I can never be free from my cotton grind
But, I know I've got what's mine
With a soft southern flame
Oh! Cotton Jenny's her name
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes 'round
Wheels of love go 'round
Love go 'round, love go 'round
A joyful sound
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But, then, the wheels go 'round
Wheels go round,
Round and round
