Cotton Fields Back Home


Melody - Melody -


|: When I was a little baby,
   My mother rocked me in the cradle,
   In them old, cotton fields back home. :|

Chorus:
Oh when them cotton balls got rotten,
You couldn't pick very much cotton,
In them old, cotton fields back home.

|: It was down in Lou'siana,
   Just about a mile from Texarkana,
   In them old, cotton fields back home. :|
Chorus:

|: It may sound a little funny,
   But you didn't make very much money,
   In them old, cotton fields back home. :|
Chorus:

|: I was home in Arkansas,
   People ask me what you come her for,
   In them old, cotton fields back home. :|
