Robert Petway Cotton Pickin' Blues
She's a cotton‑picking woman : Lord she does it all the
time
If you don't stop picking cotton now baby : I believe you
sure going to lose you mind
She picked so much cotton : she even don't know where to
go
She'll even moan now sweet mama : honey she's going from
door to door
She's a cotton‑picking woman : I swear she pick cotton
all the time
If you don't stop picking now baby : I believe you going
to lose your mind
I'm so far from my home : well I can't tell right from
wrong
Now my baby last night mama : oh well she said now black
man I'm going
How long : on my bended knees
Pick so much cotton now partner : will you forgive me if
you please
