Jaybird Coleman - Boll Weevil lyrics

Boll weevil, boll weevil, you think you treat me wrong Eat up all of my cotton, you done started on my corn Done stomped down my cotton, Lawd, found my new-ground corn If you don't let me have it, down the road I'm goin' Boll weevils got mustache, boll weevils got hands Sometimes they're walkin's in the tall canes, just lie a natch'l man Boll weevil told the farmer, "Needn't push so hard I'm gonna eat your cotton, you can't plant it in your yard" Boll weevil want to stay here, didna wear no clothes At the end of your cotton patch, take it row by row Boll weevil went away, Lawd, and left this stand "Now, I'll pay you back, farmer, soon as you break your land"
