Lyrics

When I was just a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields at home
When I was just a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields at home
When them cotton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
Down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
Well it may sound a little bit funny
Lord but you can't make very much money
In them old cotton fields at home
Yes it may sound a little bit funny
Lord but you can't make very much money
In them old cotton fields at home
Oh when them cotton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
Down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
Well I went over to Arkansas
Them people would say: "What you come here for?"
In them old cotton fields at home
Over in Arkansas
Them people would say: "What you come here for, boy?"
In them old cotton fields at home
Lord, when them cotton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
I was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home
