California Cotton Fields

My driftin' memory goes back to the spring of '42 when
I was just a child in Momma's arms,
My Daddy plowed the fields and prayed and did all he
could do to save that broke-down Oklahoma farm,

Then one night I heard my Daddy sayin' to my Momma,
that he finally saved enough for us to go,
California was his dream, a paradise that he had seen,
the pictures and the magazines had told him so

California cotton fields, where labor camps were filled
with worried men and broken dreams,
California cotton fields, was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came

Almost everything we owned was sold or left behind,
from Daddy's tools to the fruit that Momma canned,
Some folks came to say farewell and see what all we
had to sell, some just came to shake my Daddy's hand

The model T was loaded down and California bound and
the dream of hope was just four days away,
But the only change that I remember seein' in my Daddy
was when his brown hair turned to silver grey

California cotton fields, where labor camps were filled
with worried men and broken dreams,
California cotton fields, was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came

Mirror lyrics:

California cotton fields, was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came
with worried men and broken dreams,
California cotton fields, where labor camps were filled

was when his brown hair turned to silver grey
But the only change that I remember seein' in my Daddy
the dream of hope was just four days away,
The model T was loaded down and California bound and

had to sell, some just came to shake my Daddy's hand
Some folks came to say farewell and see what all we
from Daddy's tools to the fruit that Momma canned,
Almost everything we owned was sold or left behind,

California cotton fields, was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came
with worried men and broken dreams,
California cotton fields, where labor camps were filled

that he finally saved enough for us to go,
Then one night I heard my Daddy sayin' to my Momma,

My Daddy plowed the fields and prayed and did all he
I was just a child in Momma's arms,
My driftin' memory goes back to the spring of '42 when
