Mobile Bay

Was you ever in Mobile Bay?
     Johnny come tell us and pump away
A-screwing cotton by the day
     Johnny come tell us and pump away.

cho: Aye, aye, pump away
     Johnny come tell us and pump away
     Aye, aye, pump away
     Johnny come tell us and pump away

And how many bales can you carry on?
     Johnny come etc.
Just hurry up before she's gone
     Johnny come etc.

The times are hard and the wages low
Just one more bale before we go

If ever good luck does come my way
I'll say goodbye to Mobile Bay
