Hey Mister Cotton Picker Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey yonder comes a cotton picker walkin' down the road
Puffin' like a locomotive, carryin' a load
Hey mister cotton picker, what'cha gonna do?
Gonna get gone away from you

[Verse 2]
Here is mister cotton picker passin' by my shack
Seems as if his back is breakin' with a cotton sack
Hey mister cotton picker, when you gettin' paid?
Reckon as soon's the sack gets weighed
He's been pluckin', old king cotton all day in the sun
About tomorrow, sweat's forgotten
I've a-got another field that must be done

[Verse 3]
There goes mister cotton picker goatin' all his pay
Just a stack of snowy cotton, took him all the day
Hey mister cotton picker, hope you have a ball
Hope you get all that's coming to you

[Refrain]
Well a-yonder comes a cotton picker, comin' down the road
Puffin' like a locomotive, carryin' a load
Hey mister cotton picker, what'cha gonna do?
Gonna get gone away from you

[Refrain]
Here is mister cotton picker passin' by my shack
Seems as if his back is breakin' with a cotton sack
Hey mister cotton picker, when you gettin' paid?
Reckon as soon's my sack gets weighed
He's been a-pluckin', old king cotton all day in the sun
About tomorrow, sweat's forgotten
I've a-got another field that must be done

[Refrain]
There goes mister cotton picker goatin' all his pay
Just a stack of snowy cotton, took him all the day
Hey mister cotton picker, hope you have a ball
Hope you get all that's coming to you
