Pick It Up

Guthrie, Woody “

Pick It Up” from

Songs to Grow

On for Mother and

Child I dropped my thumb, pick it up, pick it up (x3)

And put it back with my fingers

I dropped my candy, pick it up, pick it up (x3)

And throw it away in the garbage

Pick, pick, pick, pick it up, pick it up (x4)

I dropped my dolly, pick it up, pick it up (x3)

And lay her down in her cradle

I dropped my shoe, pick it up, pick it up (x3)

And put it with my other shoe

I dropped my head, pick it up, pick it up (x3)

And put it back on my shoulders

Pick, pick, pick, pick it up, pick it up (x8)
