Johnny Cash - Pick The Wildwood Flower

Johnny Cash

Pick The Wildwood Flower

Those cotton fields were hot
And that tractor never was my kind of livin'
And when I hit sixteen
I had my size and I hit the road to freedom

And I'm glad I wasn't there to see my Momma
'Cause she must've cried for hours
I still hear her sayin' to me
"Get your guitar and pick the 'Wildwood Flower'"

Now Memphis was big
And it was hard to find a job and so I didn't
And it was easier to go back to the country
And it was more like livin'

Now, I've been down every road
And I've stood on every porch where they were givin'
And if they had a dime on an hour
I would pick the 'Wildwood Flower'

It's hard to turn around
And look back down the roads that I have traveled
'Cause like a never endin' ball of twine
My dreams have come unraveled

Now as evening lays its shawl
Across the shoulders of my life, I find
I couldn't tie my life together
With guitar strings and a poet's heartfelt mind

And I'm glad I wasn't there to see my Momma
'Cause she must've cried for hours
I still hear her saying to me
"Get your guitar and pick the 'Wildwood Flower'"

Play it like this, son

Mirror lyrics:

Play it like this, son

"Get your guitar and pick the 'Wildwood Flower'"
I still hear her saying to me
'Cause she must've cried for hours
And I'm glad I wasn't there to see my Momma

With guitar strings and a poet's heartfelt mind
I couldn't tie my life together
Across the shoulders of my life, I find
Now as evening lays its shawl

My dreams have come unraveled
'Cause like a never endin' ball of twine
And look back down the roads that I have traveled
It's hard to turn around

I would pick the 'Wildwood Flower'
And if they had a dime on an hour
And I've stood on every porch where they were givin'
Now, I've been down every road

And it was more like livin'
And it was easier to go back to the country
And it was hard to find a job and so I didn't
Now Memphis was big

"Get your guitar and pick the 'Wildwood Flower'"
I still hear her sayin' to me
'Cause she must've cried for hours
And I'm glad I wasn't there to see my Momma

I had my size and I hit the road to freedom
And when I hit sixteen
And that tractor never was my kind of livin'
Those cotton fields were hot
