Hi all this is an older song of mine put to Homecoming Folk w Bluegrass Mand style.

All comments welcome Rob.



Pumpkin Picker


Im just a pumpkin picker. just a pumpkin picker

Well Im just a pumpkin picker and I picked a crop or two.
When Im chipping pumpkins only think about you.
You are my pumpkin baby you are my pumpkin pie.
flaky crust of pastry apple of my eye.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.


I went pumpkin picking crazy and I staked em up so high.
When I stopped a picking they ended in the sky.
Ive lost my concentration mind not on the job.
I aint been the same since my heart you came and robbed.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you. Mmmmm
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.

Bridge

Well if you where my honey I'll tell you for a fact.
I'd take you on my tractor and I'd plant a pumpkin patch.
I'd build a little humpy down at Burpengary creek.
And stop and say g'day to every one we meet.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.

Now where rearing lots of children and their running round in packs.
I found them in the meadow beneath the pumpkin patch.
They have no education and have no need for facts.
They ride upon my tractor and the pumpkins they do stack.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.
Well Im just a pumpkin picker and Ive sure gone troppo over you.
just a pumpkin picker just a pumpkin picker just a pumpkin picker

That was a lot of fun, Rob. I don't think I've ever heard a pumpkin song before.

Thanks for sharing this!

I really like the sound of your track.

I've never gotten into the whole idea of writing a song comparing a person or relationship to food. Just seems kind of creepy like saying "I'm going to cut you up and eat you" lol. That's just me though.

Also what is "troppo"?

Troppo is an Australian expression. Means to go crazy in the tropical heat.
