When I
was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the winter
In them old cotton fields back home
When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the winter
In them old cotton fields back home
And when them cotton
boughs get rotten
There can't be very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from the
coast of Grandma
In their old cotton fields back home
It may sound a little bit funny
But she didn't make very much money
In their old cot ton fields back home
It may sound a little bit funny
But she didn't make very much money
And they're all cotton fields that
grow
I was home in Arkansas,
people asked me what's my name for
And they're more cotton fields
back home
I was home in Arkansas,
people asked me what's my name for
And they're more cotton
fields back home
An d when them cot
ton balls get rotten
You can't get 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
Make them all happy people at home
Make them all happy people at home
Make them all happy people at home
