lyrics

These cotton fields
are taking it's toll.
It's two souls down
and more to got.
My hands are bleeding
my heart is aching,
lord, lord, lord.
Well this river is rising
five feet tall
I hear "tap, tap, tap"
at my front door.
I take my two little boys
and float down the river
well it's, lord, lord, lord.
Well it's, lord, lord, lord,
make this day go by.
Well it's, lord, lord, lord,
just a one more day
so we could sing
hallelujah
hallelujah
well this rose is gonna
bloom on me
lord, lord, lord.
I made a dollar here
and a nickel there
working dawn from dusk
and day to day
but food on the table
and a roof overhead
and it's all we need.
Well it's all we need
to make this day go by
well it's all we need
just a one more day
so we could sing
hallelujah
hallelujah
this rose is gonna
bloom on me
lord, lord, lord
I light the candlesticks
as the sun goes down
take my two little boys
and gather 'round
we sing songs of joy
we sing songs of pain
and it's all we need.
Well it's all we need
to make this day go by.
Well it's all we need
just a one more day
so we could sing
hallelujah
hallelujah
well rose is gonna
bloom on me
one day well
lord, lord, lord
