The Boll Weevil

(Wah-hoo)

Well the boll weevil and the little black bug

Come from a-Mexico they say

Came all the way to Texas

Just a-lookin' for a place to stay

Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

Well the first time that I seen the boll weevil

He was a-sittin' on the square

Well the next time that I seen him

He had his a-family there

Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

Well the farmer took the boll weevil

And he put him on the red hot sand

Well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot

But I take it like a man

This will be my home, this will be my home



Well the f armer took the boll weevil

And he put him on a keg of ice

Well the weevil said to the farmer

This is mighty cool and nice

This will be my home, this will be my home

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

Well if anybody should ask you

Who it was who sang this song

Say a guitar picker from a-Oklahoma city

With a pair of blue jeans on

Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
