Lyrics Cotton Fields (The Cotton Song) [Single Version] - The Beach Boys
When
I
was
a
little
bitty
baby
My
mama
done
rock
me
in
the
cradle
In
them
old
cotton
fields
back
home
It
was
back
in
Louisiana
Just
about
a
mile
from
Texarkana
In
them
old
cotton
fields
back
home
Let
me
tell
you
now
well
got
me
in
a
fix
I
caught
a
nail
in
my
tire
doing
lickitey
splits
I
had
to
walk
a
long
long
way
to
town
Came
upon
a
nice
old
man
well
he
had
a
hat
on
Wait
a
minute
mister
can
you
give
me
some
directions
I
gonna
want
to
be
right
off
for
home
Don't
care
if
them
cotton
balls
get
rotten
When
I
got
you
baby,
who
needs
cotton
In
them
old
cotton
fields
back
home
Brother
only
one
thing
more
that's
gonna
warm
you
A
summer's
day
out
in
California
It's
gonna
be
those
cotton
fields
back
home
It
was
back
in
Louisiana
Just
about
a
mile
from
Texarkana
Give
me
them
cotton
fields
(It
was
back
in
Louisiana)
Let
me
hear
it
for
the
cotton
fields
(Just
about
a
mile
from
Texarkana)
You
know
that
there's
just
no
place
like
home
Well
boy
it
sure
feels
good
to
breathe
the
air
back
home
You
shoulda
seen
their
faces
when
they
seen
how
I
grown
In
them
old
cotton
fields
back
home
