One Row At A Time Lyrics

The southeast Georgia red clay dust is groundin' to my blue jeans
A heavy hundred pound cotton sack draggin' long behind
Wanting believe this place so bad I forgot it how I got here
Workin' my way back home one row at a time

It's a long old cotton road between here and Vaco
Than three days of bummin' through that California line
And two more days of pickin' to that house just south of 'Fresno
Workin' my way back home one row at a time

Mississippi delta mud is caked in layers of my brogains
Sunshine on snow white cotton nearly makes me blind
I can almost see 'em now, a homefolk runnin' out to meet me
Workin' my way back home one row at a time

It's a long old cotton road between here and Vaco
Than three days of bummin' through that California line, lord lord
And two more days of pickin' to that house just south of 'Fresno
Workin' my way back home one row at a time
Workin' my way back home one row at a time
