Lyrics:
Oh that Cotton Road, that Cotton Road
That Cotton Road
Oh that Cotton Road, that Cotton Road
That Cotton Road
They called it king cotton, and it
whiter than Anglo-Saxons
Make it a 1X Tall
Crispy with the cotton fashion
That's fashion if you come where I'm from
Compton California
One love
The cotton was high and the corn was growin' fine
But that was another place and another time
We'd sit out on the front porch in the evenin' when the sun
or there
''Then james says take a good look cause you might not ever see his face again...''
Twon says man what the hell is that smell? s-nnn...somebody then
The cotton was high and the corn was growin' fine
But that was another place and another time
We'd sit out on the front porch in the evenin' when the sun went
right
And I love that camera and the dope
Tell me all those deepest dark desires
And your secret is always safe with me, can't you feel
My bodies ready
a thousand miles,
Choppin' cotton and pusing plows,
And learnin' how to give it all we had.
As Life went on and years went by,
I saw the light in daddy's
to be so mistaken
By different shades of faces
Then Whit' told me, "A woman is woman, love the creation"
It all came from God, then you was my
to that idea
I got cotton mouth you know how it go
(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Look i wonder if I fail just how
Many will go to hell
I'm trying to send good
Reuben James
In my song you live again
And the phrases that I rhyme
Are just the footsteps out of time
From the time when I knew you, Reuben James
Reuben James
In my song you live again
And the phrases that I rhyme
Are just the footsteps out of time
From the time when I knew you, Reuben
a thousand miles,
Choppin' cotton and pusing plows,
And learnin' how to give it all we had.
As Life went on and years went by,
I saw the light in daddy's
James.
Reuben James all the folks
Around Madison Caunty cussed your name
Just a no count sharecroppin' colored man
Who'd steal anything that he can
It was robbed by Frank an' Jesse James
Poor Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life
And three children, they were so brave
But that dirty lettle
They gon' bite like vampire fangs
Bro selling work, got loads by the boat (boat)
Got rough riders and they all cut-throat
Do it for the notes, thats all
that didn't turn your back
On the hungry white child with no name, Rueben James
Rueben James, with your mind on my soul
And a bible in your right hand,
to meet me by the merry-go-round
I'll be buzzing like a honeybee (like a honeybee)
And I dream of her and I eat cotton candy
This cotton candy's so unreal
Reuben James all the folks around Madison County cussed your name
Just a no count share croppin' colored man
Who'd steal anything that he can
And they
The cotton was high and the corn was growin' fine
But that was another place and another time
We'd sit out on the front porch in the evenin' when the sun
The cotton was high and the corn was growin' fine
But that was another place and another time
We'd sit out on the front porch in the evenin' when the sun
And Sickles tattooed on each of his client's butt cheeks
James attempted to get the charge dismissed on grounds of
Entrapment, arguing that the cop came
1st,
to yourself?
Everybody moving up, you just staying by yourself!"
They say "James- you gon' fuck around and
Break a couple hearts in this bitch, yo check it uh"
Hoo...hoo...
A sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
I call you cotton candy
You're my cotton candy
I've got a sweet tooth
That's hard
The cotton was high and the corn was growin' fine
But that was another place and another time
We'd sit out on the front porch in the evenin' when the sun went
