Well, the cows gone dry, an' the hens don’t lay, no place I can borrow

There’s lots of money in the bank they say that’s where to keep it

Not only wouldn’t loan me some but they wouldn’t let me see it

Well Mary Lou could pull a plow if only I would let her
D G
She’s twice as strong as any ox but looks a little better

I didn’t kiss that Mary Lou but once and then I had to leave her
D G
She made my collar get too high and start the burning fever

So pick away on the old banjo, an' keep that guitar strumming

Put more water in the soup there’s better times a'coming

My rooster used to chase the hens he just kept a'getting thinner
D G
I's afraid he’d run himself to death so I brought him in for dinner
G D
Yeah the cotton crops are mighty poor the weeds are really growing
D G
I need a woman pretty bad to help me with the hoeing
[Chorus]
G D
So pick away on the old banjo, an' keep that guitar strumming
D G
Put more water in the soup there’s better times a'coming
