The Boll Weevil Song (象鼻虫之歌) - 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[00:00:31]

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[00:00:59]

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]

Make a trade with you[00:01:26]

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

I'd search the whole night through[00:01:31]

Seatch at a home I have be every a home[00:01:34]

And the boll weevil called the farmer[00:01:43]

'N' he said[00:01:45]

Ya better sell your old machines[00:01:46]

'Cause when I'm through with your cotton[00:01:50]

Heh you can't even buy gasoline[00:01:52]

Stake me a home gotta have a home[00:01:56]

And the boll weevil said to the farmer[00:02:04]

Said farmer[00:02:07]

I'd like to wish you well[00:02:08]

Farmer said to the boll weevil[00:02:12]

Lookin' for a home[00:02:17]

Lookin' for a home[00:02:21]
