Wah, hoo) Well, the Boll Weevil and the little black bug Come from a Mexico they say Came all the way to Texas Just a lookin' for a place to stay Just a lookin' for a home Just a lookin' for a home (Doo, doo, wop, wop) Well, the first time that I seen the Boll Weevil He was a-sittin' on the square Well, the next time that I seen him He had his a family there Just a lookin' for a home Just a lookin' for a home (Doo, doo, wop, wop) Well, the farmer took the Boll Weevil And he put him on the red hot sand Well, the Weevil said, "This is a mighty hot But I take it like a man This will be my home, this will be my home" Well, the farmer took the Boll Weevil And he put him on a keg of ice Well, the Weevil said to the farmer "This is mighty cool and nice This will be my home, this will be my home" (Doo, doo, wop, wop) Well, if anybody should ask you Who it was who sang this song? Say a guitar picker from a Oklahoma city With a pair of blue jeans on Just a lookin' for a home Just a lookin' for a home (Doo-doo-wop-wop)
