Boll Weevil Songtext / Lyric

Now boll weevil just look like bove

Come on with Mexico

All the way through Texas I'm looking for a home

Looking for a home



Now the first time I see the boll weevil

He's sitting on the square

Next time I see the boll weevil

Got all his family there



Looking for a home

Looking for a home



Now the farmer say to the weevil

What makes your head so red?

Then walking in his hot sun

It's a wonder I ain't late



Looking for a home

Looking for a home






Then the boll weevil told the farmer

You better sell your machine

Cause when I'm through with your cotton house

You can even buy gasoline



Gotta have a home

Gonna be my home



And the farmer take the boll weevil

Put him into red hot sand

The weevil said with mighty heart

But I'll take it like a man



Be my home

Gonna be my home



And the farmer took the boll weevil

Put him into red hot fire

The weevil said to the farmer

I must say I'm hot



Be my home

Gonna be my home



Then the boll weevil say to the farmer

I'd like to wish you well

The farmer said to the boll weevil

Wish you were in hell



Looking for a home

Looking for a home



Now if anyone happens to ask it

You that was had to sing his song

Tell him a long legged guitar

Pick it with a bad blue duckin long



Looking for a home

I ain't got no home



I ain't got no home boss

I ain't got no home
