When I was a little baby, My Mama would rock me in the cradle In them there, ol' cotton fields at home When I was a little baby, My Mama would rock me in the cradle In them there, ol' cotton fields at home Oh when them cotton balls bet rotten You can't pick very much cotton In them there, ol' cotton fields at home It was down in Louisiana, Just a mile from Texarkana In them there ol' cotton fields at home. Now it may sound very funny, But you didn't make very much money, In them there, ol' cotton fields at home Yes it might sound very funny, But you didn't make very much money, In them there, ol' cotton fields at home Oh when them cotton balls bet rotten You can't pick very much cotton In them there, ol' cotton fields at home It was down in Louisiana, Just a mile from Texarkana In them there ol' cotton fields at home. I was over in Arkansas, When the sheriff asked me "What did you come here for ?" In them there, ol' cotton fields at home Yes I was over in Arkansas, When the sheriff asked me "What did you come here for ?" In them there, ol' cotton fields at home Oh when them cotton balls bet rotten You can't pick very much cotton In them there, ol' cotton fields at home It was down in Louisiana, Just a mile from Texarkana In them there ol' cotton fields at home.
