Cotton Fields
When I was a little bitty baby,
My mama would rock me in my cradle,
In them old cotton fields back home.When I was a little bitty baby,
My mama would rock me in my cradle,
In them old, old cotton fields back home.Well, it may not sound too funny,
But we didn't make a-very much money,
In them old cotton fields back home.Well, it may not sound too funny,
But we didn't make a-very much money,
In them old, old cotton fields back home.Oh, when them cotton bolls get rotten,
You couldn't pick a-very much cotton,
In them old cotton fields back home.I was down in Louisiana,
Round about a mile from a-Texarkana,
In them old cotton fields back home.I was down in Arkansas;
People said, "What did you come here for,
From them old, old cotton fields back home?"I was down in Arkansas;
