Merle Haggard - Peach Picking Time Down In Georgia lyrics

rate me

(Jimmie Rodgers - Clayton McMichen)

When it's peach picking time in Georgia apple picking time in Tennessee

Cotton picking time in Mississippi everybody picks on me

And when it's roundup time in Texas the cowboys make whoopee

And way on down in Alabama it's gal picking time to me

Yodel le-ee oh le-ee oh de oh le-ee.

There's a bluegrass down in Kentucky Virginia's where they do the swing

And Carolina now I'm coming to you to spend the spring

Arkansas I hear you calling I know I'll see you soon

And there's where we'll do a little picking underneath the Ozark moon

Yodel le-ee oh le-ee oh de oh le-ee.

--- Instrumental ---

When all the pickers picking cotton that's when I pick a wedding ring

We'll go downtown and buy 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 picking time in Georgia it's gal picking time to me

Yodel le-ee oh le-ee oh de oh le-ee...
