Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil
Now, some of you may not know, but a boll weevil is an insect. And he`s found
mostly where cotton grows. Now, where he comes from, hm, nobody really knows.
But this is the way the story goes.

The farmer said to the boll weevil `I see you`re on the square` Boll weevil said to the
farmer `Say yep! My whole darn family`s here`

The farmer said to the boll weevil `Say, why do you pick my farm?` The weevil just
laughed at the farmer `n` said `We ain`t gonna do ya much harm`

BR ho-o-o-o-o,-o-o-o, -o-o-o, o-o-ome`
BR
BRAnd the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug. He said `Hey, I`d like to make a trade with
BRyou. But, ya see if I was a lightning bug, I`d search the whole night through`
BR
SEARCHIN` for a home, I`d have me plenty of home`
BR
BRAnd the boll weevil called the farmer, `n` he said `Ya better sell your old machines,
BR`cause when I`m through with your cotton, heh, you can`t even buy gasoline.` I`M gonnaBR
stake me a home, gotta have a home
BR
BRAnd the boll weevil said to the farmer, said ` Farmer, I`d like to wish you well.`
BRFarmer said to the boll weevil, `Yeah, an` I wish that you were in ****`
LOOKIN` for a
BR home, lookin` for a home (Ahh, you have a home all right, you have a home (A real hot
BRhome, ahhh
