C F C
There's a house on a hill by a worn down weathered old mill
G7
In the valley be-low where the river winds
C
There's no such thing as bad times
F C
And a soft southern flame oh Cotton Jenny's her name
G7
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
C
And the wheels of love go round
F C
Wheels of love go round love go roun-d
D7 G7
Love go round a joyful soun-d
C F G7
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend but then
C
The wheels go roun-d
F C
When the new day be-gins I go down to the cotton gin
G7
And I make my time worthwhile to them
C
Then I climb back up a-gain
F C
And she waits by the door oh Cotton Jenny I'm sore
G7
She rubs my feet while the sun goes down
C
And the wheels of love go round
F C
In the hot sickly south when they say well shut my mouth
G7
I can never be free from the cotton grind
C
But I know I got what's mine
F C
A soft southern flame oh Cotton Jenny's her name
G7
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
C
And the wheels of love go round
