The Boll Weevil Song - Brook Benton[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:05]
Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil[00:00:10]
Now some of you may not know[00:00:14]
But a boll weevil is an insect[00:00:17]
And he's found mostly where cotton grows[00:00:21]
Now where he comes from hm nobody really knows[00:00:25]
But this is way the the story goes[00:00:33]
The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:00:39]
I see you're on the square[00:00:43]
Boll weevil said to the farmer[00:00:46]
Say yep my whole darn family's here[00:00:48]
Gonna have a home[00:00:52]
Gonna have a home[00:00:56]
The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:01:01]
Say why do you pick my farm[00:01:04]
The weevil just laughed at the farmer 'n' said[00:01:08]
We ain't gonna do ya much harm[00:01:12]
We are loving the home[00:01:14]
And the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug[00:01:22]
He said hey I'd like to make a trade with you[00:01:25]
But ya see if I was a lightning bug[00:01:30]
I'd search the whole night through[00:01:33]
Sudden but home[00:01:36]
I've be with you home[00:01:39]
And the boll weevil called the farmer 'n' he said[00:01:44]
Ya better sell your old machines[00:01:48]
'Cause when I'm through with your cotton[00:01:51]
Heh you can't even buy gasoline[00:01:54]
I'm gonna treat me your home[00:01:57]
Gotta have a home[00:02:01]
And the boll weevil said to the farmer said farmer[00:02:06]
I'd like to wish you well[00:02:10]
Farmer said to the boll weevil[00:02:13]
Yeah an' I wish that you were in home[00:02:16]
Looking for a home[00:02:19]
Looking for a home[00:02:22]
Ahh you have a home all right you have a home[00:02:26]
A real hot home ahhh[00:02:33]
