[Verse 1]
Driver man he made a life
But the Mamie ain't his wife
Choppin' cotton, don't be slow
Better finish out your row
Keep a-movin' with that plow
Driver man'll show ya how

[Verse 2]
You get to work and root that stump
Driver man'll make you jump
Better make your hammer ring
Driver man'll start to swing
Ain't but two things on my mind
Driver man and quittin' time

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
You get to work and root that stump
Driver man'll make you jump
Better make your hammer ring
Driver man'll start to swing
Ain't but two things on my mind
Driver man and quittin' time
[Verse 1]
Driver man he made a life
But the Mamie ain't his wife
Choppin' cotton, don't be slow
You better finish out your row
Keep a-movin' with that plow
'Cause driver man'll show ya how

[Instrumental Break]

[Scatting]

[Verse 2]
Get to work and root that stump
Driver man'll make you jump
Better make your hammer ring
Driver man'll start to swing
Ain't but two things on my mind
Driver man and quittin' time

[Verse 3]
Driver man the kind of boss
Ride a man and lead a horse
When his cat of nine tail fly
You'd be happy just to die
Run away and you'll be found
By his old big redbone hound
Found by his hound
[Trumpet Solo]
Driver man will show you how
Driver man'll show you how
Driver man

[Outro]
Show you how
Driver man will show you how
Driver man'll show you, show you, show you how
