There's a house on a hill, by a worn down weathered old mill In the vally be-low 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 wheels of love go round Wheels of love go round, .... love go rou-ou-ou-ound 5 Love go round, ... a joyful sou-ou-ou-ound 5 I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend, but then The wheels go rou-ou-ou-ou-ound When the new day be-gins, I go down to the cotton gin 5 And I make my time worthwhile to them, Then I climb back up a-gain And she waits by the door, oh Cotton Jenny I'm sore 5 She rubs my feet while the sun goes down, and the wheels of love go round In the hot, sickly south, when they say "well shut my mouth" 5 I can never be free from the cotton grind, but I know I got what's mine A soft, southern flame, oh Cotton Jenny's her name 5 She wakes me up when the sun goes down, and the wheels of love go round
