Needle Sing

Woody Guthrie

Don't you hear my needle sing
Don't you hear my needle sing
I said Mama, don't you hear my needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Knitting for my daddy, needle sing
Knitting for my daddy, needle sing
Knitting for my daddy, needle sing
Well Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Stitching for my brother, needle sing
Stitching for my brother, needle sing
Stitching for my brother, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Well, the baby at the thimble, needle sing
The baby at the thimble, needle sing
The baby at the thimble, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Oh the kitten got my button, needle sing
Kitten got my button, needle sing
Kitten got my button, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Mama, don't you hear my needle sing a-zinga
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing a-zinga
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing a-zinga
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Oh chicken in my basket, needle sing
Chicken in my basket, needle sing
Chicken in my basket, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Catching me a sweetheart, needle sing
Catching me a sweetheart, needle sing
Catching me a feller, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing

Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Zinga zinga zinga zinga, needle sing
Mama, don't you hear my needle sing
