lyrics

Why don't you pick poor robin clean, pick poor robin clean
Picked his head, and picked his feet
Woulda picked his body but it wasn’t fit to eat
Oh pick poor robin clean, pick poor robin clean
And I’ll be satisfied, havin’ a family

What did that jay bird say, pick poor robin clean
Pick poor robin clean, oh pick poor robin clean
What did that jay bird say, pick poor robin clean
And I’ll be satisfied, havin’ a family

Get off my money, and don’t get funny
‘Cause I’m from Georgia, I ain’t from Florida
Put down that blade, get outta my way
I’m just a hustlin’ fool, that’s just what I am

Why don’t you pick poor robin clean, pick poor robin clean
Picked his head, and picked his feet
Woulda picked his body but it wasn’t fit to eat
Pick poor robin clean, pick poor robin clean
And I’ll be satisfied, havin’ a family
