A E G D
My driftin' memory goes back to the spring of '43,
A E
When I was just a child in momma's arms.
A E G D
My daddy plowed the ground and promised someday we would leave
A E A
This run-down mortgaged Oklahoma farm.
E D A
Then one night I heard my daddy sayin' to my momma
B7 E
That he'd finally saved enough to go.
A E G D
California was his dream, a paradise, for he had seen
A E A
Pictures in magazines that told him so.
A D E
California Cottonfields,
D E D A
Where labor camps were filled with weary men with broken dreams.
A D E
California Cottonfields,
D E A
As close to wealth as daddy ever came.
