Johnny Cash - Pickin' Time guitar chord

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
