Cotton Jenny Lyrics By Anne Murray

    there’s a house on a hill
    by a worn down weathered old mill
    in a valley below where the river winds
    there’s no such thing as bad times

    and a soft southern flame oh cotton jenny’s her name
    and she wakes him up when the sun goes down
    and the wheel of love goes round
    wheels of love go round love go round
    love go round a joyful sound

    he ain’t got a penny for cotton jenny to spend
    but then the wheels go round

    when the new day begins he goes down to the cotton gin
    and he makes his time worth while to then
    then he climbs back up again
    and she waits by the door oh cotton jenny he’s sore
    and she rubs his feet while the sun goes down
    and the wheel of love goes round
    wheels of love go round love go round
    love go round a joyful sound

    he ain’t got a penny for cotton jenny to spend
    but then the wheels go round
    wheels of love go round love go round
    love go round a joyful sound

    he ain’t got a penny for cotton jenny to spend
    but then the wheels go round
    wheels go round
    wheels go round
    love go round
    love go round
    love go round
