[length: 03:24]
[00:13.63]Well, all the girls all dance with the boys from the city
[00:18.50]And they don’t care to dance with me
[00:23.32]Well, it ain’t my fault that the fields are muddy
[00:28.03]And the red clay stains my feet
[00:32.55]Well, it’s under my nails and it’s under my collar
[00:37.44]And it shows on my Sunday clothes
[00:42.11]Though I do my best with the soap and the water
[00:46.96]But the damned old dirt won’t go
[00:51.58]But when I pass through the pearly gate
[00:56.26]Will my gown be gold instead
[01:00.69]Or just a red clay robe with red clay wings
[01:06.07]And a red clay halo for my head?
[01:09.27]
[01:19.85]Now it’s mud in the spring and it’s dust in the summer
[01:24.68]When it blows in a crimson tide
[01:28.94]Until trees and leaves and the cows are the colour
[01:33.92]Of the dirt on the mountainside
[01:38.82]And when I pass through the pearly gate
[01:43.58]Will my gown be gold instead
[01:47.77]Or just a red clay robe with red clay wings
[01:53.14]And a red clay halo for my head?
[01:56.46]
[02:26.06]Now Jordan’s banks, they’re red and muddy
[02:31.05]And the rolling water is wide
[02:35.64]But I got no boat, so I’ll be good and muddy
[02:40.40]When I get to the other side
[02:45.16]And when I pass through the pearly gate
[02:49.81]Will my gown be gold instead
[02:54.17]Or just a red clay robe with red clay wings
[02:59.63]And a red clay halo for my head?
[03:03.78]I’ll take the red clay robe with the red clay wings
[03:09.21]And a red clay halo for my head
