Parchman Farm

(album: Bobbie Gentry's The Delta Sweete Revisited - 2019)

My man's over there on Parchman Farm
Sitting there on Parchman Farm
My man's sitting there on Parchman Farm
He ain't never done nobody no harm

Putting that cotton in eleven foot sack
Putting that cotton in eleven foot sack
He's putting that cotton in eleven foot sack
With a twelve gage shotgun at his back

He's sitting over there on number nine
He's sitting over there on number nine
Sitting over there on number nine
And all he ever did was drink his wine

Well, he's gonna be there for the rest of his life
He's gonna be there for the rest of his life
Well, he's gonna be there for the rest of his life
And all he ever did was shoot his wife

done
