Elton John - Cottonfields lyrics
[Elton John - Cottonfields lyrics]
I caught a nail in my
Tire doing lickety split's
I had to walk a long long way to town
When I was a little bitty baby
My Momma done rocked me in the cradle
In them old cottonfields back home
It was back in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cottonfields back home
Came along a nice old man
Well he had a hammer wait a minute mister
Can you get me some direction
I'm gonna wanna be right off for home
Oh, let them cotton balls get rotten
I got you baby, who needs cotton
In them old cottonfields back home
Well, it sure feels good to
Breathe the air back home
You should have seen their faces when
They seen how I'd grown
In them old cotton fields back home
