Oh, yeah
Oh, Tommy reach over the corner and get your cotton sack, let's go
Sitting on this plow daydreaming (oh, this plow hurts, yes)
Thinking of the weeks to come (that's what I was thinking)
Old cotton patch is hot
Can't think of a worse spot to be on a hot summer day (oh, boy, go on)
Next week I will get my hoe down (uh-huh)
And I'll hit the field at break of day (don't go down there without your file, you know)
That will be so sad, my feet will hurt so bad
When I chop the cotton all the day (aw)
Mules been a-balking (uh-huh) they're tired of walking
Up and down the cotton rows so straight (yes)
They should pull their best 'cause soon they'll get a rest
They won't have very long to wait (oh-haw)
And when the picking starts this fall (now we're getting to it)
I'll need my cotton sack, that's all (yes, kneepads)
My back will nearly break from dragging all this weight (oh)
When I start to picking cotton this fall (oh, you got it boy)
Oh, Jordie
Little Jordie used to pick the cotton, but he playing the fiddle now
ย
Yeah, in a tin yard sack

Mules been a-balking (uh-huh) they're tired of walking
Up and down the cotton rows so straight (talk on, boy, I know what you mean)
They should pull their best 'cause soon they'll get a rest
They won't have very long to wait (uh-huh)
And when the picking starts this fall
I'll need my cotton sack, that's all (I said before I need packs)
My back will nearly break from pulling all this weight
When I start to picking cotton this fall, oh, me (aw)
