PICKIN' TIME
JOHNNY CASH

(C)I got cotton in the(G7)bottom land
Its growin up and I(C)got a good stand
My good wife and them(G7)kids of mine
Gonna get new shoes come(C)pickin time
(G7)Get new shoes come(C)pickin time

(C)Every night when I(G7)go to bed 
I thank the lord that my(C)kids are fed
They live on beans eight(G7)days and nine
But I get'em fat come(C)pickin time
(G7)Get'em fat come(C)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

Its hard to see by the coal-oil light
And I turn it off purty early at night
Cause a jug of coil-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 thats fine
The lord'll wait till pickin time
The lord'll wait till pickin time
