Canton Spirituals – Mississippi poor boy lyrics

Introduction
I come from a poor family;
We didn’t have much
But the Lord’s been good to me
Verse
We were raised in a shack, ya’ll
Sometimes the clothes were thin

That we put on our backs
But Mamma and Daddy, they done the best they could
The always told me, “Son, always be good.”
And, out of all the things, hey….
I know that the Lord’s been good to me
Refrain
Oh, he’s been good
