Alabama
High Cotton

(Roger Murrah - Scott Andres)

We didn't know that times were lean
Round our house the grass was green
It didn't seem like things were all that bad
I bet we walked a thousand miles
Chopin' cotton and pushin' 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 eyes
And felt the love in mama's hands
They kept us warm and kept us fed
Taught us how to look ahead
Now lookin' back I understand.

Chorus:
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Those fertile fields are never far away
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.

--- Instrumental ---

When Sunday mornings rolled around
We dressed up in hand-me-downs
Just in time to gather with the church
Sometimes I think how long it's been
And how it impressed me then
It was the only day my daddy wouldn't work.

Chorus:
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Those fertile fields are never far away
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.

Chorus:
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Those fertile fields are never far away
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.

Chorus:
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Those fertile fields are never far away
We were walkin' in high cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.

Walkin' in high cotton...

Walkin' in high cotton...

Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Those fertile fields are never far away
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Chorus:

Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Those fertile fields are never far away
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Chorus:

Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Those fertile fields are never far away
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Chorus:

It was the only day my daddy wouldn't work.
And how it impressed me then
Sometimes I think how long it's been
Just in time to gather with the church
We dressed up in hand-me-downs
When Sunday mornings rolled around

Leavin' home was the hardest thing we ever faced.
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Those fertile fields are never far away
Old times there are not forgotten
We were walkin' in high cotton
Chorus:

Now lookin' back I understand.
Taught us how to look ahead
They kept us warm and kept us fed
And felt the love in mama's hands
I saw the light in daddy's eyes
As life went on and years went by

And learnin' how to give it all we had.
Chopin' cotton and pushin' plows
I bet we walked a thousand miles
It didn't seem like things were all that bad
Round our house the grass was green
We didn't know that times were lean
