SHUCKIN' CORN

(Ray Griff)

I was barely past the stage of baby bottles

At an age when little legs first start to toddle

When my pa saw I could stand he thought I would be a man

Once I got the feel of blisters on my hands

Shuckin' corn shuckin' corn shuckin' corn shuckin' corn

From early morning until dusk we stripped away the blades of husk

Shuckin' corn shuckin' corn

I stood right along beside my two big brothers

And it got so we depended on each other

There was little time for fun underneath the summer sun

And it seemed to me like work was never done shuckin' corn shuckin' corn

Through the years this life of mine has kind mellowed

I'm the father of a bright eyed little fellow

You ain't seen a closer pair he goes with me everywhere

And you can bet your boots he'll always do his share

Shuckin' corn shuckin' corn...
