Pick a Bale of Cotton

Verse 1: Agnetha & Frida, Bjorn:
Gonna jump down, spin around, pick a bale of cotton
Gonna jump down, spin around, pick a bale a day
Gonna jump down, spin around, pick a bale of cotton
Gonna jump down, spin around, pick a bale a day

Chorus: Agnetha & Frida, Bjorn:
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

Verse 2: Agnetha & Frida, Bjorn:
I said me and my buddy gonna pick a bale of cotton
Now me and my buddy gonna pick a bale a day

Now me and my buddy gonna pick a bale a day

Chorus: Agnetha & Frida, Bjorn:
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

On Top of Old Smoky

Verse: Frida:
On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow
For courting’s a pleasure and parting is grief
And a false-hearted lover is worse than a thief
On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow

Midnight Special

Verse 1: Agnetha:
Well, you wake up in the morning
Hear the ding-dong ring
You go marching to the table
See the same old thing
See the fork on the table
Nothing in your pan
If you say a thing about it
You’re in trouble with the man

Chorus: Agnetha & Frida:
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine its ever-loving light on me

Verse 2: Frida:
If you ever go to Houston
Well, you’d better act right
And you’d better not gamble
And you’d better not fight
For the sheriff will arrest you
And he’ll take you down
And before you understand it
You are prison bound

Chorus: Agnetha & Frida:
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine its ever-loving light on me, on me, on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine its ever-loving light on me, on me, on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine its ever-loving light on me, on me, on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine its ever-loving light on me
