The Boll Weevil Song - Brook Benton (布鲁克·本顿)[00:00:00]

Written by：Benton/Otis/Unknown[00:00:04]

Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil[00:00:09]

Now some of you may not know[00:00:12]

But a boll weevil is an insect[00:00:16]

And he's found mostly where cotton grows[00:00:18]

Now where he comes from hm nobody really knows[00:00:22]

But this is way the story goes[00:00:29]

The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:00:36]

I see you're on the square'[00:00:40]

Boll weevil said to the farmer[00:00:43]

'Yep my whole darn family's here'[00:00:45]

The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:00:57]

'Say why do you pick my farm'[00:01:00]

The weevil just laughed at the farmer 'n' said[00:01:04]

'We ain't gonna do ya much harm'[00:01:07]

Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o o-o-ome'[00:01:09]

And the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug[00:01:18]

He said 'hey I'd like to make a trade with you[00:01:21]

But ya see if I was a lightning bug[00:01:24]

And the boll weevil called the farmer 'n' he said[00:01:38]

'Ya better sell your old machines[00:01:42]

'Cause when I'm through with your cotton[00:01:45]

Heh you can't even buy gasoline[00:01:48]

'Take me a home gotta have a home[00:01:50]

And the boll weevil said to the farmer said 'farmer[00:01:59]

I'd like to wish you well'[00:02:03]

Farmer said to the boll weevil[00:02:05]

'Yeah an' I wish that you were in 'home[00:02:08]

Lookin' for a home[00:02:11]

Ahh you have a home all right you have a home[00:02:15]

A real hot home ahhh[00:02:25]
