Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field   Honey   Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field   Baby   Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field   And O' how funny it makes me feel,   Baby, sweet thing, darling      There's a long black cloud a hanging in the sky   Honey   There's a long black cloud a hanging in the sky   Baby   There's a long black cloud a hanging in the sky   Weathers gonna break and hells gonna fly   Baby, sweet thing, darling      Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill   Honey   Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill   Baby   Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill   Won't clear a greenback dollar bill   Baby, sweet thing, darling      Work shade and back to the buzzard wing   Honey   Work shade and back to the buzzard wing   Baby   Work shade and back to the buzzard wing   Clouds are gonna bust and cry down rain   Baby, sweet thing, darling
