As recorded by Van Morrison (From the 2023 Album MOVING ON SKIFFLE) [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
When I was a little bitty baby

              G                 D
My mama would rock me in the cradle

                               A
In them old cotton fields back home

       D
It was down in Louisiana

             G              D
Just about a mile from Texarkana

            A                  D
In them old cotton fields back home
[Chorus]
D         G
When them cotton bolls get rotten

               D
You can't pick very much cotton

                               A
In them old cotton fields back home

       D
It was down in Louisiana

             G              D
Just about a mile from Texarkana

            A                  D
In them old cotton fields back home
[Verse 2]

When I was just sixteen

Well it ain't very funny
