When I was a little bitty baby
my mama would rock me in my cradle
In them old cottonfields back home
When I was a little bitty baby...
Now when them cotton bowls get rotten
you can't pick very much cotton
In them old cottonfields back home
It was down in Louisiana
just about a mile from Texacana
In them old cottonfields back home

When I was a little bitty baby...
When I was a little bitty baby...
In them old cottonfields back home
In them old cottonfields back home
my mama would rock me in my cradle
In them old cottonfields back home
When I was a little bitty baby...
Now when them cotton bowls get rotten
you can't pick very much cotton
In them old cottonfields back home
It was down in Louisiana
just about a mile from Texacana
In them old cottonfields back home

When I was a little bitty baby...
When I was a little bitty baby...
In them old cottonfields back home
In them old cottonfields back home
