Peach Picking Time Down In Georgia - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

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

There’s a 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

When the picker is picking 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
