Dan Auerbach
Sharecropper’s Son
[Verse 1]
Ain't no time for education
Too much corn in the field
Ain't got time to go to school, y'all
We got too much work around here

[Verse 2]
Never had time for playin'
Never had to have no fun
Too much cotton needs haulin'
And that's too much, probably be done

[Chorus]
It was hard, but it was fair
We was always out there
Out in the red hot sun
'Cause the work was never done
For a sharecropper's son, yeah

[Verse 3]
Workin' from kin to cane
Out in the heat of the day
Me and my brothers, we was prayin' for rain
'Cause we still gotta haul that hay

[Chorus]
It was hard, but it was fair
We was always out there
Out in the red hot sun
For all the work was never done
For a sharecropper's son
[Bridge]
It wasn't easy
'Cause the work was never done
It wasn't easy
For a sharecropper's son
For a sharecropper's son

[Outro]
It ain't easy
'Cause the work ain't never done
It ain't easy
For a sharecropper's son
For a sharecropper's son
For a sharecropper's son
For a sharecropper's son
