Thread Name: Lyr Req: Mill songs
Subject: RE: Lyric request: Mill songs
What about the tune "Cotton Mill Girls"?

"I've worked in the cotton mills all my life and I ain't got nothing but a Barlow knife. And its hard times cotton mills girls, its hard times everywhere. . . " Song by Hedy West. I think Gail Rundlett has recorded it. Lyrics and chord progression can be found in the book Rise Up Singing. That book is the greatest! Except it doesn't have a song I've been looking for - Barlow Knife. If any one know the lyrics to that one, please e-mail me. Thanks!
