Chorus:
When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In those old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In those old cotton fields back home
Verse 1:
When those cotton balls get rotten
you can't pick very much cotton
In those old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In those old cotton fields back home
Ya
Repeat Chorus

YOU’RE THE REASON FOR MY TEARS
THE DARK SIDE OF ME

MY SOUL GROWS DARKER
AS THE NIGHT IS LONG
THE DAY WILL COME
AND THE SHADOWS MOVE ON
YOU TOOK YOUR LOVE FROM ME

Feels warmer then that small town I was going
no where
I finally found a place where I can be
wild and free

Im chasing down a dream I can be anything
I’m running so fast the neon lights are all I see
And they’re all for me
In California
