Ride this train to Dyess Arkansas see this
Some of us are so poor now you'd have to 'em a sack of fertilizer
To an umbrella
They grade the cotton according to the length and strength of the
And they been raisin' a lot of fair to grade here which ain't good
But was a time
Yeah was a time when the cotton grew tall
Not far from here I had the finest you ever saw
600 acres of the finest cottonland in the country
Now I believe this was about 1855 and I had a crop that year
I had the best bunch of you ever saw and I treated 'em right
a lot of em even stayed with me after the war
But gettin' back to I was gonna tell you
See I have a rule that all the slaves got to be back in out of the
And for by sundown every day
And one day they came in there was one short
Well I found out right away that it was old Moses that was missin'
And figured that somethin' might have to him old as he was
So I out into the cottonfield to look for him
Well uncle was way down at the end of the road sittin' on his cottonsack
Well I walked up and said Uncle Moses don't you know the
That you're supposed to be punished if you're not back in and accounted for by
And he said Boss Jack I that sir
But I was pickin' along on my
And all of a somethin' seemed to come over me
And the finest words comin' through my head and the finest music
So I rememorized them words and that till I had it all in my head
Now that I got the song all through I guess Boss
I was ready to take my
Well I hardly know what to say
But I asked Moses to sing that song for me
And he stood up there and for the first time he Swing Low Sweet Chariot
Well after that I kinda laid old Uncle Moses off and let him peddle the house
And every at dark you could hear him sing
And he sang another song in a while that made me feel awful proud
