E5
When I was a little bitty baby
   A5 
My mama would rock me in the cradle
       E5                      B5
In them old cotton fields back home
      E5             E5
It was down in Louisiana
            A5
Just about a mile from Texarkana
       E5    B5                E5          A5
In them old cotton fields back home
         A5
When them cotton bolls get rotten
        E5
You cant pick very much cotton
                             B5
In them ole cotton fields back home
      E5              E5
It was down in Louisiana
            A5
Just about a mile from Texarkana
       E5   B5                 E5
In them ole cotton fields back home
