G
There's a house on a hill
C G
By a worn down weathered old mill
D
In the valley be-low where the river winds
G
There's no such thing as bad times
G
And a soft southern flame
C G
Oh Cotton Jenny's her name
D
And she wakes me up when the sun goes down
G
And the wheels of love go round
Chorus
G C
Wheels of love go round
G A
Love go round, love go round
D
What a joyful sound
G C D
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
G
But then the wheels go round
Gd Ge Gf Ge Gd Ge Gf Ge
G
When the new day begins
C G
I go down to the cotton gin
D
And I make my time worth while to them
G
Then I climb back up a-gain
G
And she waits by the door
C G
Oh Cotton Jenny I'm sore
D
And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down
G
And the wheels of love go round
G C
Wheels of love go round
G A
Love go round, love go round
D
What a joyful sound
G C D
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend
G
But then the wheels go round

When they say we'll shut my mouth
