[C] slide to [C#] [C] slide [C#]
(Wah-hoo)
[C#]Well the boll weevil and the little black bug Come from a-Mexico they say
Came all the way to Texas Just a-lookin' for a place to stay
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home [G#] [C#]
[C] slide [C#]
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
[C#]Well the first time that I seen the boll weevil
He was a-sittin' on the square
Well the next time that I seen him
He had his a-family there
Just a-lookin' for a [G#]home, just a-lookin' for a [C#]home
[C] slide [C#]
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
[C#]Well the farmer took the boll weevil
And he put him on the red hot sand
Well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot
But I take it like a man
This will be my [G#]home, this will be my [C#]home
[C#]Well the farmer took the boll weevil
And he put him on a keg of ice
Well the weevil said to the farmer
This is mighty cool and nice
This will be my [G#]home, this will be my [C#]home
Cslide to C#
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
[C#]Well if anybody should ask you
Who it was who sang this song
Say a guitar picker from a-Oklahoma city
With a pair of blue jeans on
Just a-lookin' for a [G#]home, just a-lookin' for a [C#]home
[C] slide to [C#]
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Repeat and fade out
(Wah-hoo)
