Boll Weevil
Boll weevil told the farmer
you'd better treat me right
I'll eat up all your cotton
sleep in your grain bed tonight
Boll weevil told the farmer
you'll need no Ford machine
I'll eat up all your cotton
can't buy no gasoline
I seen a spider
runnin' up and down the wall
He must've been a-goin'
to get his ashes hauled
I don't see no water
but I'm about to drown
I don't see no fire
but I'm a-burnin' down
