lyrics

=================================================

When it's peach-pickin' time in Georgia
Apple-pickin' time in Tennessee
Cotton-pickin' time in Mississippi
Everybody picks on me

When it's round-up time in Texas
The cowboys make whoopee
And down in old Alabama
It's gal-pickin' time to me

. . .

There's the bluegrass in Kentucky
Virginia's where they do the swing
Carolina now I'm coming
To you to spend the Spring

And Arkansas I hear you calling
I know I'll see you soon
'Cause there is where I'll do a little pickin'
Underneath the Ozark moon

. . .

When hard times overcome you
I hope they don't get me
'Cause I've got a sweetie waiting
For me down in Tennessee

I know I'm going to see her
I hope that it won't be long
'Cause there is where we'll pick a little cabin
And call it our mountain home

. . .

When the picaninnies pick the cotton
I'll pick a wedding ring
We'll go to town and pick a little gown
For the wedding in the Spring

I hope the preacher knows his business
I know that he can't fool me;
When it's peach-pickin' time in Georgia
It's gal-pickin' time to me

. . .
