There’s a house on a hill
By a worn down weathered old mill
In the valley below where the river winds
There’s no such thing as bad times

And a soft southern flame
Oh Cotton Jenny’s her name
And she wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheels of love go round

Wheels of love go round
Love go round, love go round
What a joyful sound
I ain’t got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But then the wheels go round

When a new day begins
I go down to the cotton gin
And I make my time worth while to them
Then I climb back up again

And she waits by the door
Oh Cotton Jenny I’m sore
And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down
And the wheel of love goes round

Wheels of love go round
Love go round, love go round
What a joyful sound
I ain’t got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But then the wheels go round

In the hot, sickly south
When they say we’ll shut my mouth
I can never be free from the cotton grind
But I know I got what’s mine

She’s a soft southern flame
Oh Cotton Jenny’s her name
She wakes me up when the sun goes down
And the wheels of love go round

Wheels of love go round
Love go round, love go round
What a joyful sound
I ain’t got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
But then the wheels go round
