"Cotton Fields" lyrics

"Cotton Fields"

When I was a little, bitty baby
My mama used to rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When them cotton bolls get rotten
We don't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When I was just 16
When on down in New Orleans
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When them cotton bolls get rotten
We don't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home, alright

Well, it ain't very funny, but
We don't make very much money
In them old cotton fields back home

Down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When them cotton bolls get rotten
We don't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When them cotton bolls get rotten
We don't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

When them cotton bolls get rotten
We don't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home

It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home, home
