Keeps your head up. An' his head up. What's a few rocks? Jus' one, maybe. Quarter pound? Always argue. Back with the empty sack. Got our own book. Mark in the weight. Got to. If they know you're markin', then they don't cheat. But God he'p ya if ya don' keep your own weight. This is good work. Kids runnin' aroun'. Heard 'bout the cotton pickin' machine? Yeah, I heard. Think it'll ever come? Well, if it comes fella says it'll put han' pickin' out. Come night. All tired. Good pickin', though. Got three dollars, me an' the ol' woman an' the kids. The cars move to the cotton fields. The cotton camps set up. The screened high trucks and trailers are piled high with white fluff.

Wise fingers seeking in the bolls. Hips hunching along, dragging the bag. Kids are tired now, in the evenin'. They trip over their feet in the cultivated earth. And the sun is going down. Wisht it would last. It ain't much money, God knows, but I wisht it would last. On the highway the old cars piling in, drawn by the handbills. Got a cotton bag? No. Cost ya a dollar, then.
