G
We didn't know the times were lean
C
Around our home the grass was green
G D7
It didn't seem like things were all that bad
G
I bet we walked a thousand miles
C
Chopping cotton and pushing plows
G D7 G
And learning how to give it all we had
As life went on and years went by
C
I saw the light in daddy's eyes
G D7
And felt the love in mama's hands
G
They kept us warm and kept us fed
C
Taught us how to look ahead
G D7 G
Now looking back I think I understand
We Were Walking in High Cotton
C
Old times there are not forgotten
G D7
Those fertile fields are never far away
G
We were walking in high cotton
C
Old times there are not forgotten
G D7 G
Leaving home was the hardest thing we ever faced
When Sunday morning rolled around
C
We dressed up in hand-me downs
G D7
Just in time together with the church
G
Sometimes I think how long it's been
C
And how it impressed me then
G D7 G
It was the only day my daddy wouldn't work
Repeat #3
