When I was a little bitty baby,
My Mama would rock me in my cradle
In them old cotton fields at home
When I was a little bitty baby,
My Mama would rock me in my cradle
In them old cotton fields at home.
Yeah!
'Cause when the cotton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
Way down in Louisiana,
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home.
Alle zusammen jetzt!
You may think it's very funny,
But you never didn't make very much money,
In them old cotton fields at home
Yes you think it's very funny,
But you never didn't make very much money,
In them old cotton fields at home.
Everybody now!
'Cause when the cotton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields at home
Way down in Louisiana,
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields at home.
