Boll Weevil Song

Lyrics

(wah-hoo)
 well the boll weevil and the little black bug
 come from a-mexico they say
 came all the way to texas
 just a-lookin' for a place to stay
 just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
 (doo-doo-wop-wop)
 well the first time that i seen the boll weevil
 he was a-sittin' on the square
 well the next time that i seen him
 he had his a-family there
 just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
 (doo-doo-wop-wop)
 well the farmer took the boll weevil
 and he put him on the red hot sand
 well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot
 but i take it like a man
 this will be my home, this will be my home
 well the f armer took the boll weevil
 and he put him on a keg of ice
 well the weevil said to the farmer
 this is mighty cool and nice
 this will be my home, this will be my home
 (doo-doo-wop-wop)
 well if anybody should ask you
 who it was who sang this song
 say a guitar picker from a-oklahoma city
 with a pair of blue jeans on
 just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
 (doo-doo-wop-wop)
