Hangin' on to every nickel and every dime never had a dollar to call mine
|
I gotta work tomorrow just to pay for the day
|
Well I worked all that I can stand now I long for the day
|
Then I can sleep in my white satin bed with a red velvet pillow for my head
|
They'll lower me into my grave with gropes of gold and bread
|
And I'll sleep for eternity in my white satin bed
|
|
Well I never had no soft warm bed before just a cold park bench or a boxcar floor
|
Thumbin' north to the coal mines or south to cotton fields
|
Oh hangin' on it won't be long till I'll know how it feels
|
To sleep in my white satin bed...
|
Yes I'll sleep for eternity in my white satin bed
|
