Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
Ten dozen girls weren't enough to fill
His heart turned to my darling Lill
His looks was his weapon and he aimed to kill
My girl's heart so his blood I'll spill
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
He won away my girl just because he could
With his dancing and talk make me look no good
My darling Lill is supposed to settle for me
Damned Cotton Eyed Joe come and set her free
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
Cotton Eyed Joe can fight like he dance
With what I'm packing he don't have a chance
He ain't so pretty with bullets for teeth
Lying in a shallow grave with no one to grieve
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
Doing twenty years on account of that Joe
Oh Lord, why'd you have to pick such a handsome foe
Stay out of my lawn its for me to mow
I'd burn the whole world to kill Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
Ten dozen girls weren't enough to fill
His heart turned to my darling Lill
His looks was his weapon and he aimed to kill
My girl's heart so his blood I'll spill
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
He won away my girl just because he could

Damned Cotton Eyed Joe come and set her free
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe

If it hadn't been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from
Where did you go
Where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe
