Lyrics
When I was a little bitty baby
My mother would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
When I was a little bitty baby
My mother would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
Oh, when them cotton balls get rotten
You couldn't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
It may sound a little funny
But you didn't make much money
In them old cotton fields back home
It may sound a little funny
But you didn't make much money
In them old cotton fields back home
Oh, when them cotton balls get rotten
You couldn't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
