When I was (E) a little bitty baby
My mama would rock (A) me in the (E) cradle
In them old cotton fields back (B) home
It was (E) down in Louisiana
Just a mile (A) from Texarkana (E)
In them old (B) cotton fields back home (E)
It may sound (E) a little funny
But you didn't (A) make very much money (E)
In them old cotton fields back home (B)
(E) It may sound a little funny
But you didn't (A) make very much money (E)
In them old cotton (B) fields back home (E)
(CHORUS)
Oh when those (A) cotton balls get rotten
You can't (E) pick you very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home (B)
It was (E) down in Louisiana
Just a (A) mile from Texarkana (E)
In them (B) old cotton fields back home (E)
I was over in Arkansas
People ask me what you come here for
In them old cotton fields back home
I was over in Arkansas
People ask me what you come here for
In them old cotton fields back home
*sometimes i play (B7) instead of the (B)
