Hush up, honey, don’t you cry

Things are gonna get better in the

Work through the winter, work

Yeah plant my corn and taters and 
                  A

A
Now I got down on my knees

Lord I thought I’d pray
D
Along come a great big flood
                  A
Washed everything away
                              E
And there ain’t a thing for a poor 
man
        A
In this world


A
Work through the winter, Lord, work 
through this fall
D                                 
All I got for Christmas was a pair
        A
 of overalls
                              E
And there ain’t a thing for a poor 
man

A
Well I got down on my knees

Looked up to the sky
D                              
All I can think of is to ask the 
            A
good Lord why
                              E
And there ain’t a thing for a poor

A
Well hush up, honey, Lord don’t get 
down
D                                  
You know that I love you every way 
A
around
                              E
