emitt rhodes – textile factory كلمات اغاني

[verse 1]
i’d like to tell you ’bout my home town
but it’s awfully hard to explain to a stranger
it’s been a year since i went down
to the place where i was born and raised, sir

[chorus]
i gotta make it rich, i’m getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm
i got a girl i wanna marry and i know that she loves me
yes, i’m ready for work, i got my shirtsleeves rolled up around my arms
i got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory

[verse 2]
well, my papa was a poor man but always did the best he could
and he whipped my behind whenever i wasn’t good
there were six of us children in my family
and not a single one of us has ever learned how to read

well, i’m really not complaining, my parents were the best you could have
well, i love my mama and i really respected my dad

[verse 3]
well, let me tell you that every sunday morning we would dress in our sunday clothes
and we would listen to a sermon from the preacher about our good lord
well, the preacher said, “child, be thankful for the food you eat”
but my tastes are getting bigger, i think i’ll be traveling east

[chorus]
you know, i gotta make it rich, i’m getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm
i got a girl i wanna marry and i know that she loves me
yes, i’m ready for work, i got my sleeves rolled up around my arms
i got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory

[bridge]
well, now listen here, brother, if you think you’ve got it bad
well, what do you think about the life i’ve had?

[verse 4]
well, my father said to me, “son, you know you’ve got to earn your keep”
so i’ve been working from sunup to sundown since i was thirteen
well, my father said, “boy, be thankful got a place to sleep”
but i’ve been sleeping awful restless and i think i’ll be moving east

you know i gotta make it rich, i’m getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm
i got a girl i wanna marry and i know that she loves me
yes, i’m ready for work, i got my sleeves rolled up around my arms
i got a chance to make it rich in a textile factory

you know i gotta make it rich, i’m getting tired of digging ditches back on the farm…
