Cotton Fields

When I was a little bitty baby
 My mama done rock me in the cradle
 In them old cotton fields back home
 It was back in Louisiana
 Just about a mile from Texarkana
 In them old cotton fields back home
 Let me tell you now well got me in a fix
 I caught a nail in my tire doing lickitey splits
 I had to walk a long long way to town
 Came upon a nice old man well he had a hat on
 Wait a minute mister can you give me some directions
 I gonna want to be right off for home
 Don't care if them cotton balls get rotten
 When I got you baby, who needs cotton
 In them old cotton fields back home
 Brother only one thing more that's gonna warm you
 A summer's day out in California
 It's gonna be those cotton fields back home
 It was back in Louisiana
 Just about a mile from Texarkana
 Give me them cotton fields
 (It was back in Louisiana)
 Let me hear it for the cotton fields
 (Just about a mile from Texarkana)
 You know that there's just no place like home
 Well boy it sure feels good to breathe the air back home
 You shoulda seen their faces when they seen how I grown
 In them old cotton fields back home
