04 Feb 97 - 07:52 AM (#1891) Subject: Lyr Add: PEACH PICKIN' TIME IN GEORGIA (J Rodgers) From: Bert hansell PEACH PICKIN’ TIME IN GEORGIA Words and music by Jimmie Rodgers and Clayton McMichen. As recorded by Jimmie Rodgers, 1928. When it's peach-pickin' time in Georgia, apple-pickin' time in Tennessee, Cotton-pickin' time in Mississippi, ev'rybody picks on me. When it's round-up time in Texas, the cowboys make whoopee, Then down in old Alabama, it's gal-pickin' time to me. [YODEL] There's the bluegrass down in Kentucky. Virginia's where they do the swing. Carolina, now I'm coming, to you to spend the spring. Arkansas, I hear you calling. I know I'll see you soon. There's where I'll do a little pickin', underneath the Ozark moon. [YODEL] Now when hard times overtake you, I hope they don't get me, For I've got a sweetie waiting, for me down in Tennessee. I know I'm going to see her. I hope it won't be long. There's where we'll pick a little cabin, and call it our mountain home. [YODEL] When the pickaninnies pick the cotton, I'll pick a wedding ring. We’ll go to town and pick a little gown for the wedding in the spring. Hope the preacher knows his bus'ness. I know he can't fool me. When it's peach-pickin' time in Georgia, it's gal-pickin time to me. [YODEL] |

After the "Ozark moon," and before the pickaninies line: I've about done my daydreams. I hope they don't get me. I've got a little girl a-waitin' down in Tennessee. I know I'm goin' to see her. I hope it won't be long. That's where I'll build a little cabin and call it my mountain home. |

06 Feb 97 - 06:54 AM (#1971) Subject: RE: Lyrics wanted: Peach Pickin Time In Georgia From: Bobby O'Brien God, I feel good when I keep finding recordings of songs being asked for :-) I found an "original recording" of this ditty as recorded back in the 1940's by original Grand Ole Opry member Riley Puckett. It was re-issued in Britian in 1982 on the album I have "All Around Bluegrass--20 of the best" (various artistes). I would be happy to make you a tape of the song. Please send $2 to cover cost of recording time, tape, and postage to: Bobby O'Brien, 49 McCleary Avenue, Amsterdam, NY 12010-2816. Phone 518 842 5857. |
