ABBA - Pick a Bale of Cotton On Top of Old Smoky Midnight Special (Medley) lyrics

Pick a Bale of Cotton

Gonna jump down, spin around
Pick a bale of cotton
Gonna jump down, spin around
Pick a bale a day
Gonna jump down, spin around
Pick a bale of cotton
Gonna jump down, spin around
Pick a bale a day

Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day
Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day

I said me and my buddy gonna
Pick a bale of cotton
Now me and my buddy gonna pick a bale a day
I said me and my buddy gonna
Pick a bale of cotton
Now me and my buddy gonna pick a bale a day

Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day
Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day

On Top of Old Smoky

On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow
For courting's a pleasure and
Parting is grief
And a false hearted lover is
Worse than a thief
On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow

Midnight Special

Well, you wake up in the morning
Hear the ding dong ring
You go marching to the table
See the same old thing
See the fork on the table
Nothing in your pan
If you say a thing about it
You're in trouble with the man

Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever-loving light on me

If you ever go to Houston
Well, you'd better act right
And you'd better not gamble
And you'd better not fight
For the sheriff will arrest you
And he'll take you down
And before you understand it
You are prison bound

Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever-loving light on me, on me
On me let the midnight special
Shine a light on me let the midnight special
Shine it's ever-loving light on me, on me
On me let the midnight special
Shine a light on me let the midnight special
Shine it's ever-loving light on me, on me
On me let the midnight special
Shine a light on me let the midnight special
Shine it's ever-loving light on me
