Get A Little Dirt On - David Allan Coe
When I was a little boy Daddy used to say to me son We got a lotta land And a lotta hard work to be done Go get your marbles put 'em in the house Tear down your castles in the sand Come with your pappy to the cotton patch Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands son Get a little dirt on your hands If you're gonna grow up to be a big big man Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands Well, I reached twenty one And I thought I was a pretty big wheel Left the country for the city Met a slicker with a shady deal He said hold up the bank boy and take all the money And run as fast as you can The only way you'll ever get along in this world Is to get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands son Get a little dirt on your hands If you're gonna grow up to be a big big man Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands Well, it's four in the morning And the warden is calling my name He said he's teaching me a lesson now He's making me go work in the rain Dig that ditch boy, fill it up I'm wantin' you to understand The only way to straighten out a guy like you Is to get a little dirt on his hands Get a little dirt on his hands Hey David gotta get a little dirt on those hands boy Yeah, if you want to grow up to be a big big man You better remember what old whispering bill told you in this song Get a little dirt on those hands Get a little dirt on your hands son Get a little dirt on your hands If you wanna grow up to be a big big man Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands Get a little dirt on your hands son I gotta little dirt on my hands Get a little dirt on your hands
