Cotton Eyed Joe

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't you remember don't you know Daddy worked a man they called Cotton Eyed Joe Daddy worked a man they called Cotton Eyed Joe Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe I'd-a been married a long time ago I'd-a been married a long time ago [Verse 2] Down in the cotton patch down below Everybody singing the Cotton Eyed Joe Everybody singing the Cotton Eyed Joe Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe I'd-a been married a long time ago I'd-a been married a long time ago [Verse 3] I know a gal lives down below Used to go to see her but I don't no more Used to go to see her but I don't no more Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe I'd-a been married a long time ago I'd-a been married a long time ago [Verse 4] I fell down and I stubbed my toe Called for the doctor Cotton Eyed Joe Called for the doctor Cotton Eyed Joe Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe I'd-a been married a long time ago I'd-a been married a long time ago [Verse 5] Hewn my fiddle and rosin my bow Gonna make music everywhere I go Gonna play a tune they call Cotton Eyed Joe Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe I'd-a been married a long time ago I'd-a been married a long time ago
