[Intro] (A single, mournful acoustic guitar. A distant, wailing harmonica note.) [Verse 1] These cotton fields are barren... the dust is all I see... Yeah, the cotton fields are barren... and the dust is all I see... The sky ain't got no water left for a broken man like me. [Verse 2] My back is bent from prayin'... for a single drop of rain... My back is bent from prayin'... for relief from all this pain... But every sunrise is a reminder of the same old strain. [Verse 3] But your hand in mine, darlin'... TURNS MY DARKEST NIGHT INTO DAY. YES, YOUR HAND in mine, my darlin'... TURNS THE NIGHT INTO DAY!!!! You promised we would rise up with the sun... and love would find a way. [Outro] (The harmonica plays a soft, hopeful melody as the guitar fades) Find a way... You promised me, darlin'... [Fade Out]
