G
All the girls all dance with the boys from the city,
D
And they don't care to dance with me.
G
Now it ain't my fault that the fields are muddy,
D D
And the red clay stains my feet.
G
And it's under my nails and it's under my collar,
D
And it shows on my Sunday clothes.
G
Though I do my best with the soap and the water,
D G
But the darned old dirt won't go.
c G
But when I pass through the pearly gate,
D G
Will my gown be gold instead?
c G
Or just a red clay robe with red clay wings,
D G
And a red clay halo for my head
G
Now it's mud in the spring and it's dust in the summer,
D
When it blows in a crimson tide.
G
Until trees and leaves and the cows are the colour,
D G
Of the dirt on the mountainside.
c G
But when I pass through the pearly gate,
D G
Will my gown be gold instead?
c G
Or just a red clay robe with red clay wings,
D G
And a red clay halo for my head
