Cotton Eyed Joe - Single Version

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'da been married a long time ago
I'da been married a long time ago

(Ah-ha-ha, yeah, ol' Cotton-Eyed Joe, Tommy)
Down in the cotton patch, down below
Everybody's singing the Cotton-Eyed Joe
Everybody's singing the Cotton-Eyed Joe

Had it not been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'da been married a long time ago
I'da been married a long time ago

I know a gal lives down below
Used to go to see her brother, don't know more
Used to go to see her brother, don't know more

Had it not been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'da been married a long time ago
I'da been married a long time ago

I fell down and then 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'da been married a long time ago
I'da been married a long time ago

Tuned my fiddle and rosined 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'da been married a long time ago
I'da been married a long time ago
