Ain’t No Game Lyrics by Son Volt

A Retrospective 1995-2000

0

[Verse 1]
Ain't no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It's all been ground down to molasses
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Should'a been on the river in nineteen and ten
Ooh, ooh, ooh
They were drivin' the women just like the men
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 3]
Should'a been on the river in nineteen and five
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Find yourself lucky to be alive
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Ain't no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It's all been ground down to molasses
Oh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 4]
Go down Old Hannah, don't you rise no more
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't you rise up 'til the Judgment Day's for sure
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 5]
O Captain, don't you do me like you done poor old Shine
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well ya drove that old mule 'til he went stone blind
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Ain't no more cane on the Brazos
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It's all been ground down to molasses
Ooh, ooh, ooh
