Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was just a little bitty baby
My mama used to rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 2]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 3]
Well when them cotton bolls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 4]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 5]
Well I was down in Arkansas
And people were all askin'
"Whatcha signed up for"
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 6]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 7]
Oh, well when them cotton bolls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 8]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 9]
When I was just a little bitty baby
My mama used to rock me in the cradle
In them old, old cotton fields at home
[Verse 10]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 11]
Oh, well when them cotton bolls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
[Verse 12]
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
