Work All The Summer
Work all de Summer

Got any cawn bread
Cawn bread save me some
Got any cawn bread

Work all de Summer

Gonna make dis Chris’mas
In mah overhall
Got any cawn bread
Cawn bread save me some
Got any cawn bread
Buddy won’ you save me some
Don’ min’ de weather
So de win’ don’ blow
Don’ min’ dese chains
So de ball don’ grow
Way far f’om home
Wit hammer in mah han’
Ahm so tire’ hammerin’
Ah cain’ stan’
Ah feels mah Hell arisin’
Six feet a day
Lord ef it keep arisin’
Gwine wash dis damn lan’ ‘way
