YOU CAN'T HIDE -COTTON CHOPPING SONG
What you gwinter do in the gettin'-up morning
When hit's raining fire down?
Go to the mountain,
Mountain cried out,
You can't hide.
Sinner, what you gwinter do in the gettin'-up morning
When hit's raining fire down?
Go to the rock,
Rock cried out,
You can't hide.
Mother, what you gwinter do in the gettin'-up morning
When hit's raining fire down?
Go to the Lord,
Lord cried out,
You can't hide.
The question is shouted by the leader or boss; answers by the congregation, or the hands in time to the chopping.
