Then walking in his hot sun It’s a wonder I ain’t late Looking for a home Looking for a home Then the boll weevil told the farmer You better sell your machine Cause when I’m through with your cotton house You can even buy gasoline Gotta have a home Gonna be my home And the farmer take the boll weevil Put him into red hot sand The weevil said with mighty heart But I’ll take it like a man Be my home Gonna be my home And the farmer took the boll weevil Put him into red hot fire The weevil said to the farmer I must say I’m hot Be my home Gonna be my home Then the boll weevil say to the farmer I’d like to wish you well The farmer said to the boll weevil Wish you were in hell Looking for a home Looking for a home Now if anyone happens to ask it You that was had to sing his song Tell him a long legged guitar Pick it with a bad blue duckin long Looking for a home I ain’t got no home I ain’t got no home boss I ain’t got no home
