Artist/Band: Hank Snow
Lyrics for Song: Peach Picking Time Down in Georgia
Lyrics for Album: Down at the Rainbow's End [Jasmine Records (UK)] [2001]



(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

When it's roundup time in Texas the cowboys make whoopee

And way down in old Alabama it's gal picking time for me.



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

Carolina now I'm a coming to you come and just to spend the spring

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

That's where we'll do some picking beneath the Ozark moon.



--- Instrumental ---



When the pickininees pick the cotton that's the time I pick a wedding ring

We'll go to the town to pick a little gown for the wedding in the spring

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 for me...
