Banjo Pickin' Girl

I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
I'm goin' around this world, I'm a banjo-picking girl
I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
 
I'm goin' to Tennessee, baby mine (×2)

I'm goin' to Tennessee, don't you try to follow me

I'm goin' to Tennessee, baby mine

If you ain't got no money, baby mine (×2)
If you ain't got no money, get yourself another honey

If you ain't got no money, baby mine   I'm goin' to Arkansas, baby mine (×2)
I'm goin' to Arkansas, you stay here with Ma and Pa
 I'm goin' to Arkansas, baby mine
 
I'm goin' to Chattanooga, baby mine (×2)

I'm goin' to Chattanooga, baby mine
I'm goin' to North Carolina, baby mine (×2)
I'm goin' to North Carolina, And from there on to China
I'm goin' to North Carolina, baby mine

I'm goin' across the ocean, baby mine (×2)
I'm goin' across the ocean, if I don't change my notion,
I'm goin' across the ocean, baby mine

I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
I'm goin' around this world, I'm a banjo-picking girl
I'm goin' around this world, baby mine
