When the Lord made me, he made a simple man

A                   D
Not much money and not much land

D                                G
He didn’t make me no banker, or legal charmer

           D                       G        Do,
When the Lord made me he made a Blackland Farmer.ea

D                                  G
Well my hands ain’t smooth and my face is rough

         A                   D
But my heart is warm and my ways ain’t tough

   D                      G
I guess I’m the luckiest man ever born

           D                           G       D
Cause the Lord gave me health and a Blackland Farm

D      G      A      D
Mmmm   Mmmm   Mmmm   Mmmmm 

D      G      A      D
Mmmm   Mmmm   Mmmm   Mmmmm 

D                           G
Breakin up the new ground early in the day

 A                       D
Gonna plant cotton, I’m gonna plant hay

    D                              G
I love to smell the sweet breeze blowin’ through the corn

          D                          G       D
Life has sure done me right by my Blackland Farm

D                         G
I feel like I’m getting closer to you God

   A                           D
A pint in the ground and I’m breakin up the sod

    D                        G
My mind is at ease and I can do no harm 

        D                          G       D
Lord I owe it all to you and my Blackland Farm

D      G      A      D
