I'd like to tell you 'bout my home town

But it's awfully hard to explain to a stranger

It's been a year since I went down

To the place that I was born and raised, sir, oh.



I gotta make it rich I'm getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm

I got a girl I wanna marry and I know that she loves me

Yes, I'm ready for work, I got my shirt sleeves rolled up around my arms

I got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory.



Well, my papa was a poor man but always did the best he could

And he whipped my behind whenever I wasn't good

There were six of us children in my family

Mmm and not a single one of us has ever learned how to read.



Well, I'm really not complaining, my parents were the best you could have

Well, I love my mama and I really respected my dad.



Well, let me tell you that every Sunday morning we would dress in our Sunday clothes

And we would listen to a sermon from the preacher about our good Lord

Well, the preacher said : 'Child, be thankful for the food you eat'

But my tastes are getting bigger, I think I'll be traveling East.



You know I gotta make it rich, I'm getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm

I got a girl I wanna marry and I know that she loves me

Yes, I'm ready for work, I got my sleeves rolled up around my arms

I got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory.



Well, now listen here brother if you think you've got it bad

Mmm well, what do you think about the life I've had ?



Well, my father said to me : 'Son, you know you've got to earn your keep'

So I've been working from sun up to sun down since I was thirteen

Well, my father said : 'Boy, be thankful got a place to sleep'

But I've been sleeping awful restless and I think I'll be moving East.



You know I gotta make it rich, I'm getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm

I got a girl I wanna marry and I know that she loves me

Yes, I'm ready for work, I got my sleeves rolled up around my arms

I got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory.



You know I gotta make it rich, I'm getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm

I got a girl I wanna marry and I know that she loves me

Yes, I'm ready for work, I got my sleeves rolled up around my arms

I got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory.
