Lyrics:

The rattlesnake lift his head
The horse he rolled to the ground
The rattlesnake lift his head
The horse he rolled to the ground
Busted daddy into - you know it brung him down

Picking tobacco
Out in the Georgia sun
Picking tobacco
Out in the Georgia sun
Gal youngin' I'll whup ya - if you afraid of worms

The man in the big house
Lord you know he always frowned
The man in the big house
Lord you know he always frowned
Hit them fields - until the sun goes down

Come on in gal
Get up off your knees
Come on in gal
Get up off your knees
All we got - cornbread and black-eyed peas

If it don't kill you
Lord it will make you strong
If it don't kill you
Lord it will make you strong
No way to right - a world that was never wrong
