parchman farm

my man's over there on parchman farm

sittin' there on parchman farm

my man's sittin' there on parchman farm

he ain't never done nobody no harm

puttin' that cotton in eleven foot sack

puttin' that cotton in eleven foot sack

puttin' that cotton in eleven foot sack

with a twelve gauge shotgun at his back

he's sittin' over there on number nine

sittin' over there on number nine

sittin' 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
