Lord You've Been Mighty Good To Me

This year the boll weevil, he lives in my cotton

The big river flooded out my corn in the bottom

Talk about a man with troubles I've got 'em.

But you've been mighty good to me.

Lord, you've been mighty good to me.

My barn burned down and it was nearly new

A rat must of knawed the wires in two

But don't get me wrong I'm not fussin' at you.

For you've been mighty good to me.

Lord, you've been mighty good to me.

{Lord, } you've been mighty good to me

You've let me keep my family

To me you never have been rude

You keep my table filled with food.

And I thank you every night and day

'Cause I don't, enough I should say.

Lord, you've been mighty good to me.

My best horse fell and broke both hind legs

What chickens I have they won't lay any eggs

But you know, Lord, I never borrow or beg

For you've been mighty good to me

Lord, you've been mighty good to me.

(Lord, you've been mighty good to me

You've let me keep my family

To me you never have been rude

You keep my table filled with food.)

My best horse fell and broke both hind legs

What chickens I have they won't lay any eggs

But you know, Lord, I never borrow or beg

For you've been mighty good to me

Yes, you've been mighty good to me.

You've been mighty good to me

Lord, you've been mighty good to me...
