Boll Weevil

Robbie van Leeuwen

Well the first time I saw Boll Weevil
He was a-sittin' on a square
Well the next time that I saw him
He had his whole family there
Just a lookin' for a home

Well the farmer took the Boll Weevil
And pulled him on the red hot sand
Well the Weevil said: "It is mighty hot"
But I take it like a man
Just a lookin' for a home

Well, the Weevil said to the farmer:
"Sell your old machine
When we fill your cup
You can buy gasoline"
Just a lookin' for a home

Well if somebody should ask you
Who it was who sang this song
Say you set a beating from Oklahoma city

Just a lookin' for a home
