[00:00:00] Jesus Was Our Saviour and Cotton Was Our King - Billy Joe Shaver

[00:00:03] Written by：Billy Joe Shaver

[00:00:05] Wagon wheels are turning with cobble colored sound

[00:00:10] When me and little Tommy rode the first load in the town

[00:00:16] The cotton gin was ginning out the pennies for the pounds

[00:00:20] Like a giant vacuum cleaner sucking let up off the ground

[00:00:26] Our freckled faces sparkled then like diamonds in the rough

[00:00:31] With smiles it smells of snaggle teeth and good old Garrett snuff

[00:00:37] If I could I would be trading all this fat back for the lean

[00:00:42] When Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king

[00:00:48] This kind of life we're living beats all I've ever seen

[00:00:53] Seems some of us was born for picking things and eaten beans

[00:00:58] Still I reckon girl or digging fairly well in our means

[00:01:03] Cause Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king

[00:01:09] Our freckled faces sparkled then like diamonds in the rough

[00:01:14] With smiles it smells of snaggle teeth and good old Garrett snuff

[00:01:20] If I could I would be trading all this fat back for the lean

[00:01:25] When Jesus was our saviour and cotton was our king
