Lyrics

Cotton Hill

[Verse 1]

There are ones more worthy than I can be counted on

They are ones provoked to confound distinction

Good and wrong

[Verse 2]

My saying too much on the side

If our two friends condemn

One virtue, one verity

[Verse 3]

We err in our duty to utter truths when we have one

When we have one

When we have one
