Lead Belly


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

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

Oh when those coton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home.

It was down in Louisiana
Just ten miles 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 coton fields back home.

It may sound a little funny
But you didn't make much money
In them old coton fields back home.

Oh when those coton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home.

It was down in Louisiana
Just ten miles from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home.

I was over in Arkansas
People ask me what you come here for
In them old cotton fields back home.

I was over in Arkansas
People ask me what you come here for
In them old cotton fields back home.

Oh when those coton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home.

It was down in Louisiana
Just ten miles from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home.

Oh when those coton balls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home.

It was down in Louisiana
Just ten miles from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home.
