Merle Haggard - Peach Pickin' Time In Georgia (2002 version) lyrics
[Merle Haggard - Peach Pickin' Time In Georgia 2002 version lyrics]
Apple-pickin' time in Tennessee
Cotton-pickin' time in Mississippi
Everybody picks on me
When it's roundup time in Texas
The cowboys make whoopee
Then down in old Alabama
It's gal-pickin' time to me
Yo-de lay-ee oh lay-ee oh lay-ee
There's the bluegrass down in Kentucky
Virginia's where they do the swing
Carolina now, I'm coming to you
Coming to spend the spring
Arkansas, I hear you calling
I know I'll see you soon
There's where we'll do a little pickin'
Underneath the Ozark moon
Yo-de lay-ee oh lay-ee oh lay-ee
Now whеn hard times overtake you
I hopе they don't get me
For I've got a sweetie waiting
For me down in Tennessee
I know I'm going to see her
And I hope it won't be long
'Cause there's where we'll pick
A little cabin and call it our mountain home
Yo-de lay-ee oh lay-ee oh lay-ee
Now after I've picked all my cotton
I'll pick a wedding ring
We'll go downtown, pick a wedding gown
For the wedding in the spring
I hope the preacher knows his business
I know he can't fool me
When it's peach-pickin' time in Georgia
It's gal-pickin' time to me
Yo-de lay-ee oh lay-ee oh lay-ee
