High Cotton Songtext

High Cotton Songtext
Oh, the sun feels great, I can tell today it′s gonna shine
Well, my lady she's a-smilin′, both of us are getting on just fine
Well, the bills are paid, the Caddy's new
And it looks like the bad times are all through
I'm in high cotton, I′ve forgotten that I had the blues
There′s a hundred lucky ladybugs living everywhere I see
Well, I won a million dollars from a dollar in the lottery
My best friend C.W. he's due
Well, he beat every charge that the police threw
I′m in high cotton, I've forgotten that I had the blues
Well, I′m in high cotton, I'm in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I′m in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin'
Ain′t no stoppin′ me now
Well, the summer wind is heaven and the honeysuckle's in the air
Well, I′m gonna pick my mandolin on the back porch chair
My worst enemy just got the news
His wife took her lover and his money too
I'm in high cotton, I′ve forgotten that I had the blues
Well, I'm in high cotton, I′m in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I'm in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin′
Ain′t no stoppin' me now
Well, I′m drinking Coca-Cola from a bottle that's frosty green
And C.W. showed up with an authentic fifties Coke machine
The old crowd′s comin' this afternoon
For a good time rock ′n' roll barbecue
I'm in high cotton, I′ve forgotten that I had the blues
Well, I′m in high cotton, I'm in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I′m in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin′
Ain't no stoppin′ me now
Well, I'm in high cotton, I'm in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I′m in high cotton, the popcorn′s poppin'
Ain′t no stoppin' me now
Oh, the sun feels great, I can tell today it′s gonna shine
Well, my lady she's a-smilin′, both of us are getting on just fine
The bills are paid, the Caddy's new
And it looks like the bad times are all through
I'm in high cotton, I′ve forgotten that I had the blues
Well, I′m in high cotton, I'm in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I′m in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin′
Ain't no stoppin′ me now
Well, my lady she's a-smilin′, both of us are getting on just fine
Well, the bills are paid, the Caddy's new
And it looks like the bad times are all through
I'm in high cotton, I′ve forgotten that I had the blues
There′s a hundred lucky ladybugs living everywhere I see
Well, I won a million dollars from a dollar in the lottery
My best friend C.W. he's due
Well, he beat every charge that the police threw
I′m in high cotton, I've forgotten that I had the blues
Well, I′m in high cotton, I'm in high cotton
Soft and white as the clouds
I′m in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin'
Ain′t no stoppin′ me now
Well, the summer wind is heaven and the honeysuckle's in the air
Well, I′m gonna pick my mandolin on the back porch chair

I′m in high cotton, the popcorn's poppin′
Ain't no stoppin′ me now
