faron young - pickin' time (live) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well, i’ve got cotton in the bottom land
up and growing and i’ve got a good stand
my good wife and them kids of mine
are gonna get new shoes come picking time

[verse 2]
every night when i go to bed
i thank the lord that my kids are fed
they live on beans eight days of nine
but i’ll get ’em fat come picking time

[verse 3]
the corn is yellow and the beans are high
that sun is hot in that lazy old sky
the work is hard ’til laying by
laying by ’til picking time

[verse 4]
it’s hard to see by a coal oil light
and i turn it off pretty early every night
’cause a jug of coal oil costs a dime
but i’ll stay up late come picking time

[verse 5]
yes, my old wagon barely gets me to town
i patched the wheels and i watered ’em down
i keep her in shape so she’ll be fine
to haul my cotton come picking time
[verse 6]
that sunday morning when they passed the hat
it was still pretty empty back where i sat
but the preacher smiled and he said, “that’s fine
the lord’s gonna wait ’til picking time”

[outro]
yes, the lord’s gonna wait ’til picking time
