Kokomo Arnold - Bo Weavil Blues lyrics

Boll weevil, come out of my flour barrel Boll weevil, come out of my flour barrel Said, there's boll weevils here, mama, boll weevils everywhere Says, I went to my captain and I asked him for a peck of meal Says, I went to my captain and I asked him for a peck of meal He said, "Leave here Kokimo, you've got boll weevils in your field" Now Mr. Weevil, how come your bill's so long? Now Mr. Weevil, how come your bill's so long? You done eat up all my cotton, started on my youngest corn Says, the merchant told the doctor, "Don't sell no more C. C. pills" Says, the merchant told the doctor, "Don't sell no more C. C. pills 'Cause the boll weevils down here in Georgia done stopped these cotton mills" Now Mr. Boll Weevil, if you can talk, why don't you tell? Now Mr. Boll Weevil, if you can talk, why don't you tell? Say, you got poor Kokimo down here in Georgia, catchin' a lotta hell
