Tell me how high , cotton has to grow Tell me how high , cotton has to grow ‘Fore you get a man with a rusty blade and a hoe
Tell me who’s that on , when i can get no ride Tell me who’s that on , when i can get no ride That’s why i get antsy , and steal a kiss before i die
I’ve been knocked down , stood up , all in the name of goodbye’s I’ve been locked down , beat up , all in the name of goodbye’s Mmmmmm And i don’t mind stealing the last kiss before i die
Tell me how long , supposed to keep a good man down Tell me how long , supposed to keep a good man down ‘Fore he packs his suitcase , and get’s the hell outta town
Now that i’m gone , who’s gonna work the land Now that i’m gone , who’s gonna work the land Just to make sure that this , Dirt don’t turn into sand
I’ve been knocked down , stood up , all in the name of goodbye’s I’ve been locked down , beat up , all in the name of goodbye’s Mmmmmm And i don’t mind stealing the last kiss before i die hey yeah
I’ve been knocked down , stood up , all in the name of goodbye’s Mmmmmm I’ve been locked down , beat up , all in the name of goodbye’s And i don’t mind stealing the last kiss before i die And i don’t mind stealing the last kiss before i die
