Fannie Lou歌词完整版
"I was born 1917 in Montgomery County, October 6
Sharecropping wasn't as bad as it is now, but the difference is we didn't have to have machines and such to gather the, uh, crops at that time because, uh, being from a huge family, my mother and father had twenty children. I'm the twentieth child and six girls and fourteen boys. They had enough children, you know, that they could gather the crops every year. But the point was we never did get anything out of the crop. We would pick fifty and sixty bales of cotton and I could remember very well, because when I first started picking cotton I was about six years old when the land owner told me one day if I would pick thirty pounds he would yield me something out of the commissary, something like the little stores they have now. But at the time they was calling them commissaries and he told me if i'd uh pick thirty pounds of cotton that week he would give me some cracker jacks, and, uh, daddy wide legs and sardines and things, the things that he knew that I would love and had never had a chance to have 'em."
