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
Are gonna get new shoes, come Pickin' Time
Get new shoes come Pickin' Time
Every 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'll get 'em fat come Pickin' Time
Get 'em fat come come Pickin' Time
It's hard to see by the coal-oil light
And I turn it off purty early at night
A jug of coal-oil costs a dime
But I'll 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
I'm gonna keep her in shape so she'll be fine
To haul my cotton come Pickin' Time
To haul my cotton come Pickin' Time
