Lyrics:
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
Davis, Little Richard, Jackie Wilson, James Brown,
Jimi Hendrix, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder,
Marvin Gaye, and Tina Turner all rolled into one
That's
Got me laying on
Cotton candy clouds
There's no way that I am coming down
Cause these shades and these hues
Got me looking at you
You're the voice in
stayed for the papes
All heroes do not wear capes
Feel like James Bond
Swag on my fit like I'm James Bond
Hop in the whip like I'm James Bond
Driving
not because of that
'Cos we got people like Lebron James
We’ve got J that’s born of the same skin as you & I
Just gotta grab life by its horns & impose
and
[Chorus]
I would grab the stars right out the night
for you, girl, under cotton candy skies
It’s all pink and baby blue
and it’s all for you
the way you make
a bale of cotton
Oh lordy
Pick a bale a day
On Top Of Old Smokey
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so
will hurt so bad (that's right)
When I chop the cotton all the day
Talk on, brother, talk on
Mules been a bawkin'
They're tired of walkin'
Up
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
of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day
On Top of Old Smoky
On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow
For
set the mood right
Feelin' like an Indian, trippin' by the fireside
Naked in a teepee, oh man what a ride
Thinkin 'bout a million, thinkin 'bout
of cotton
Oh Lordy
Pick a bale a day
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so slow
For courting's a pleasure
will hurt so bad (that's right)
When I chop the cotton all the day
Talk on, brother, talk on
Mules been a bawkin'
They're tired of walkin'
Up
that
Big rings on like Lebron James (Lebron James)
Took troll on a chase down broadway
I been chasing money aint coming home all day

Ruben 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 Ruben James
Ruben 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 Ruben James
James
Hey Reuben James all the folks around Madison Caunty cussed your name
Just a no count of colored man who'd steal anything that he can
And they
I've found (That's enough of that)
I still be diggin' on James Brown
James Brown, the Godfather of soul
Soul Brother number one, let's get it y'all
a nigga with her to help her old ass
As James Baldwin says
"You can only be destroyed by believing
That you really are what the white world considers
The Butterfly?
Uh-uh, that's old
Let me see the Tootsee Roll
Yeah, 199Quad
69 Boyz backed up by the Quad City DJ's
One time
Cotton candy,
The Butterfly?
Uh-uh, that's old
Let me see the Tootsee Roll
Yeah, 199Quad
69 Boyz backed up by the Quad City DJ's
One time
Cotton candy,
a little bit closer
And baby I will be alright
Hello I'm glad I got to know ya
Promise you will stay by my side
Ugh
Cotton Candy Girl
Oh you rule the world
Whats up world its your boy Mister James
Jupiter's my first girls address me by the same
I got my future set like I carve my own lane
And keep my
of cotton
Oh Lordy
Pick a bale a day
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so slow
For courting's a pleasure
