Lyrics

When I was a little bitty baby, my mama would rock me in that cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
When I was a little bitty baby, my mama would rock me in that cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
And when them cotton balls get rotten, you can'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
I was over in Arkansas when the people asked me
"What you come here for?"
In them old cotton fields back home
I was over in Arkansas when the people asked me
"What you come here for?"
In them old cotton fields back home
And when them cotton balls get rotten, you can'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
Well, it might sound a little bit funny, but you don't make very much money
In them old cotton fields back home
It might sound a little bit funny, but you don't make very much money
In them old cotton fields back home
And when them cotton balls get rotten, you can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home, yeah
It was down in Louisiana, just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
When I was a little bitty baby, my mama would rock me in that cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
Yes, when I was a little bitty baby, my mama would rock me in that cradle
In them, hm-mm, yeah
