 * Pick a Bale of Cotton:**
 * Actions:**

Lyrics: Train whistle blowin', makes a sleepy noise Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys Rockin', Rollin', Ridin', out along the bay All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way
 * Morningtown Ride:**

Driver at the engine, Fireman rings the bell Sandman swings the lantern to say that all is well Rockin', Rollin', Ridin', out along the bay All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

Maybe it is raining where our train will ride All the little trave'lers are warm and snug in-side Rockin', Rollin', Ridin', out along the bay All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles a-way Rockin', Rollin', Ridin', out along the bay All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way
