Cotton Fields

Lyrics

When I was a little baby
 My Mama would rock me in the cradle
 In them there
 Old cotton fields at home
 When I was a little baby
 My Mama would rock me in the cradle
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Oh, when them cotton balls bet rotten
 You can't pick very much cotton
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 It was down in Louisiana
 Just a mile from Texarkana
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Now it might sound very funny
 But you didn't make very much money
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Yes, it might sound very funny
 But you didn't make very much money
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Oh, when them cotton balls bet rotten
 You can't pick very much cotton
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 It was down in Louisiana
 Just a mile from Texarkana
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 ♪
 I was over in Arkansas
 When the sheriff asked me
 "What did you come here for?"
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Yes, I was over in Arkansas
 When the sheriff asked me
 "What did you come here for?"
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Oh, when them cotton balls bet rotten
 You can't pick very much cotton
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 It was down in Louisiana
 Just a mile from Texarkana
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 When I was a little baby
 My Mama would rock me in the cradle
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 When I was a little baby, baby
 My Mama would rock me in the cradle
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Oh, when them cotton balls bet rotten
 You can't pick very much cotton
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 It was down in Louisiana
 Just a mile from Texarkana
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 In them there
 Ol' cotton fields at home
 Yeah
