Well it snowed the night before
and it was frozen on the ground
and we lived seven miles from town
I can hear my daddy's voice
So me and Quentin went back on the hill
Burnin' in that old warm mornin' stove,

Our check comes in on Monday,
tell old Sam we'll pay him off
when you get to the blacktop road
Well, they wonder why there ain't

guess we hate him on and for denied
or was it over fifty years ago?

you tell him I'll come help him kill those hogs
And ask him if he'd still be
Don't forget the coffee, Billy Joe
