I Started Learning My Lessons In Abbot Texas, Where I Was Born In 1933. My Sister Bobbie And I Were Raised By Our Grandparents [...] We Never Had Enough Money, And Bobbie And I Started Working At An Early Age To Help The Family Get By. That Hard Work Included Picking Cotton. [...] Picking Cotton Is Hard And Painful Work, And The Most Lasting Lesson I Learned In The Fields Was That I Didn't Want To Spend My Life Picking Cotton.
