[Chorus:]
Jump down, turn around to pick a bale of cotton
Jump down, turn around to pick a bale a day.
Jump down, turn around to pick a bale of cotton
Jump down, turn around to pick a bale a day.
Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton, oh Lordy,
Pick a bale a day.
Oh Lordy, pick a bale of cotton, oh Lordy,
Pick a bale a day.
Me and my gal can pick a bale of cotton,
Me and my gal can pick a bale a day.
[Chorus]
Me and my wife can pick a bale of cotton,
Me and my wife can pick a bale a day.
[Chorus]
Me and my friend can pick a bale of cotton,
Me and my friend can pick a bale a day.
[Chorus]
Me and my papa can pick a bale of cotton,
Me and my papa can pick a bale a day.
