Pick Poor Robin Clean

Hello there, Geeshie
Hello there, Slack
What are you doing down here?
Oh, I'm just down here trying to play these boys the new Cock Robin
Let me hear it, then

I picked poor Robin clean, picked poor Robin clean
I picked his head, picked his feet
I woulda picked his body but it wasn't fit to eat
Picked poor Robin clean, picked poor Robin clean
And I'll be satisfied having a family

Lord, did that jaybird laugh when I picked poor Robin clean?
Poor Robin clean, picked poor Robin clean
Oh, did that jaybird laugh when I picked poor Robin clean?
And I'll be satisfied having a family

Get off my money, and don't get funny
'Cause I'm a Negra, don't cut no figure
Then old Miss Sadie, she is my baby
And I'm a hustling coon, that's just what I am

You bet I picked poor Robin clean
I picked poor Robin clean
I picked his head, picked his feet
I woulda picked his body but it wasn't fit to eat
But I picked poor Robin clean, picked poor Robin clean
And I'll be satisfied having a family

Yeah, won't be long now

Picked poor Robin clean
I picked his head, picked his feet
I woulda picked his body but it wasn't fit to eat
I picked poor Robin clean, picked poor Robin clean
And I'll be satisfied having a family
