I remember to this day

The bright red Georgia clay

After the summer rain.

Will power made that old car go

The wheat-fields of Saint Paul
4   -4  5  5    5  6   5
And the mornin' we got caught
5  5    5    -4 4   -4
Robbin' from an old hen,
4   -4 5  5    5  5    6  5
Old MacDonald, he made us work
5   -4   5  -4   4  4   4    4  -4  5
But then he paid us for what it was worth
4 5  5  5    5  5   -4  -4
Another tank of gas and back

On the road again.

Settlin' down in my brain,

Though it's only been a month or so
