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
the
way
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"
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"
Ho-o-o-o-o,-o-o-o,
-o-o-o,
o-o-ome"
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"
SEARCHIN'
for
a
home,
I'd
have
me
plenty
of
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
Stake
me
a
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
****"
LOOKIN'
for
a
Home,
lookin'
for
a
home
(Ahh,
you
have
a
home
all
right,
you
have
a
home
(A
real
hot
Home,
ahhh
