| | | Artist: | Johnny Cash |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Pickin Time | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 80 | | | | Lyrics: | (Spoken)
I got cotton in the bottom land
It's up and growin' and I got a good stand
My
good wife and them kids of mine
Gonna get new shoes, come Pickin' Time
Get new shoes come
Pickin' Time.
Ev'ry night when I go to bed
I thank the Lord that my kids are
fed
They live on beans eight days and nine
But I get 'em fat come Pickin' Time
Get 'em
fat come come Pickin' Time.
The corn is yellow and the beans are high
The sun is hot in
the summer sky
The work is hard til layin' by
Layin' by til Pickin' Time
Layin' by til
Pickin' Time.
It's hard to see by the coal-oil light
And I turn it off purty early at
night
'Cause a jug of coal-oil costs a dime
But I stay up late come Pickin' Time
Stay up
late come Pickin' Time.
My old wagon barely gets me to town
I patched the wheels and I
watered 'em down
Keep her in shape so she'll be fine
To haul my cotton come Pickin'
Time
Haul my cotton come Pickin' Time.
Last Sunday mornin' when they passed the
hat
It was still nearly empty back where I sat
But the preacher smiled and said that's
fine
The Lord'll wait til Pickin' Time
The Lord'll wait til Pickin' Time. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
