The Boll Weevil Song - Brook Benton (布鲁克·本顿)[00:00:00]
Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil[00:00:09]
Now some of you may not know[00:00:13]
But a boll weevil is an insect[00:00:16]
And he's found mostly[00:00:20]
Where cotton grows[00:00:21]
Now where he comes from hm [00:00:24]
Nobody really knows[00:00:28]
But this is the way the story goes[00:00:32]
The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:00:38]
"I see you're on the square"[00:00:41]
Boll weevil said to the farmer[00:00:45]
"Say yep my whole darn family's here"[00:00:47]
We gotta have a home gotta have a home[00:00:51]
The farmer said to the boll weevil[00:01:00]
"Say why do you pick my farm"[00:01:03]
The weevil just laughed[00:01:07]
At the farmer 'n' said[00:01:08]
"We ain't gonna do ya much harm"[00:01:10]
We looking have a home [00:01:13]
And the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug [00:01:21]
He said "Hey I'd like to[00:01:24]

But ya see if I was a lightning bug[00:01:28]
