In a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town one dusty street to walk up and down 在密西西比州的棉花再找三角镇一尘土飞扬的街道行走，上下

Nothin' much to see but a starvin' hound in a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 什么也没多看，而是starvin “在密西西比州的棉花再找猎犬”三角洲城镇

   

Down in the Delta where I was born all we raised was cotton potatoes and corn 倒在我出生的三角洲所有我们提出的是棉花土豆和玉米

I've picked cotton till my fingers hurt draggin' the sack through that Delta dirt 我已经通过了三角洲污垢摘棉花，直到我的手指伤了draggin 炒鱿鱼

And I've worked hard the whole week long pickin' my fingers to the blood and bone 我已经努力工作了整整一个星期长接下去我的手指血与骨

There ain't a lot of money in a cotton bale at least when you try to sell 没有很多钱的棉包，至少当你尝试出售

In a Mississippi cotton pickin'... 在密西西比州的棉花再找 ...

   

On Saturday nights we'd get dressed up catch us a ride on a pickup truck 上周六晚上我们就穿好衣服赶上我们乘坐一辆皮卡车

On a gravel road it nearly string to lust that cotton pickin' Delta dust 在砂石路它几乎字符串就动淫念的棉花再找三角洲尘埃

We'd sit across the street on the depot porch lookin' at the folks lookin' back at us 我们会在街对面坐在门廊车厂在看的人回头看着我们

Munchin' on a dust covered ice cream cone and wondering how we'd get back home Munchin 上的灰尘覆盖的蛋卷冰淇淋，不知道大家怎么想回家
