Well the song pre-dates the American Civil War. Aparently there was a recording made in 1925 that is closer to the original version than the watered down lyrics used today. In the original song, the story is about Cotton Eyed Joe... a black man who woos all the women in town.

Johnny Gimble recorded the song. It was also recorded in the 1980's by The Muldoons but this was a cover version of Gimble's original.
The song is called "Cotton Eyed Joe", but those are not the correct lyrics. That particular part of the song goes: "Where did you come from, where did you go, where did you come from, cotton eyed Joe?" That is part of the chorus of the song
