The Boll Weevil Song - Brook Benton

Written by：Traditional

Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil

Now some of you may not know

But a boll weevil is an insect

And he's found mostly where cotton grows

Now where he comes from hm nobody really knows

But this is way the the story goes

The farmer said to the boll weevil

I see you're on the square

Boll weevil said to the farmer

Say yep my whole darn family's here

Gonna have a home

Gonna have a home

The farmer said to the boll weevil

Say why do you pick my farm

The weevil just laughed at the farmer 'n' said

We ain't gonna do ya much harm

We are loving the home

And the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug

He said hey I'd like to make a trade with you

But ya see if I was a lightning bug

I'd search the whole night through

Sudden but home

I've be with you home

And the boll weevil called the farmer 'n' he said

Ya better sell your old machines

'Cause when I'm through with your cotton

Heh you can't even buy gasoline

I'm gonna treat me your home

Gotta have a home

And the boll weevil said to the farmer said farmer

I'd like to wish you well

Farmer said to the boll weevil

Yeah an' I wish that you were in home

Looking for a home

Looking for a home

Ahh you have a home all right you have a home

A real hot home ahhh
