Cotton Eyed Joe

Don't you remember, don't you know?
Daddy worked a man they called Cotton Eyed Joe
Daddy worked a man they called Cotton Eyed Joe
Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd-a been married a long time ago
I'd-a been married a long time ago

Down in the cotton patch down below
Everybody singing the Cotton Eyed Joe
Everybody singing the Cotton Eyed Joe
Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd-a been married a long time ago
I'd-a been married a long time ago

I know a gal lives down below
Used to go to see her but I don't no more
Used to go to see her but I don't no more
Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd-a been married a long time ago
I'd-a been married a long time ago

I fell down and I stubbed my toe
Called for the doctor Cotton Eyed Joe
Called for the doctor Cotton Eyed Joe
Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd-a been married a long time ago
I'd-a been married a long time ago

Hewn my fiddle and rosin my bow
Gonna make music everywhere I go
Gonna play a tune they call Cotton Eyed Joe
Had it not been for Cotton Eyed Joe
I'd-a been married a long time ago
I'd-a been married a long time ago
