<br/>
Words and music by Johnny Cash<br /><br /><br /><br />(Spoken)<br />I got cotton in the bottom land<br />It's up and growin' and I got a good stand<br />( )<br />My good wife and them kids of mine<br />Gonna get new shoes, come Pickin' Time<br />Get new shoes come Pickin' Time.<br /><br />Ev'ry night when I go to bed<br />I thank the Lord that my kids are fed<br />They live on beans eight days and nine<br />But I get 'em fat come Pickin' Time<br />Get 'em fat come come Pickin' Time.<br /><br />The corn is yellow and the beans are high<br />The sun is hot in the summer sky<br />The work is hard til layin' by<br />Layin' by til Pickin' Time<br />Layin' by til Pickin' Time.<br /><br />It's hard to see by the coal-oil light<br />And I turn it off purty early at night<br />'Cause a jug of coal-oil costs a dime<br />But I stay up late come Pickin' Time<br />Stay up late come Pickin' Time.<br /><br />My old wagon barely gets me to town<br />I patched the wheels and I watered 'em down<br />Keep her in shape so she'll be fine<br />To haul my cotton come Pickin' Time<br />Haul my cotton come Pickin' Time.<br /><br />Last Sunday mornin' when they passed the hat<br />It was still nearly empty back where I sat<br />But the preacher smiled and said that's fine<br />The Lord'll wait til Pickin' Time<br />The Lord'll wait til Pickin' Time.<br />
