If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

Have you ever seen a man

with a hole in his shoe

Does more hoppin' than a Kangaroo

Pants held up with binder twine

Sippin' back on that ole moonshine

Now he'd uproot

when the time is right

Use his charm and steal your wife

Where's he at

Nobody knows

Look out for ole Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

Years gone by

We've all grown old

And I'm still talkin'

'bout Cotton Eye Joe

Left me with an empty heart

I wish I'd known right from the start

He came to town

I paid the price

Used his charm and stole my wife

Where's he gone

Nobody knows

Keep a lookout for ole Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been for

Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from

Cotton Eye Joe

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

If it hadn't been

for Cotton Eye Joe

I'd been married a long time ago

Where did you come from

Where did you go

Where did you come from
