American Ballads and Folk Songs
He had all his family dere— Dey's lookin' for a home, Jes a-lookin' for a home.
Then the Farmer got angry, Sent him up in a balloon j "Good-by, Mr. Farmer j I'll see you again next June. A-lookin' for a home, Jes a-lookin' for a home."
De Farmer took de Boll Weevil
An' buried him in hot san';
De Boll Weevil say to de Farmer,
"I'll stan' it like a man,
Fur it is my home,
It is my home."
Den de Farmer took de Boll Weevil
An' leP him on de icej
Says de Boll Weevil to de Farmer,
"Dis is mighty cool an' nice.
Oh, it is my home,
It is my home."
Mr. Farmer took little Weevil And put him in Paris Green 5 "Thank you, Mr. Farmer j It's the best I ever seen. It is my home, It's jes my home."
Den de Farmer say to de Merchant:
"We's in an awful fix;
De Boll Weevil's et all de cotton up
