Let me tell you bout a friend of mine
His name is boll weevil, check him out
Spends all day
on his big butt
And he don't ever, ever get outside
I come to visit,
I bring some sunshine
And I just spread it all over the fire
He's stuck on his big couch
Stuck in his big show
He looks at the TV and he's all right
I come from the drug lord
The local drug store
(Bug is supplied) and he's never uptight
And I wonder:
"Boll Weevil, why don't you get out of your home?"
Said, "I'm comfortable here"
Don't wanna move, don't wanna leave
I said, "Boll Weevil, get right out of your home."
Goodbye, I gotta stay
I will some other day
Bye Bye, gotta go to sleep
And let the tube shine
Let the tube shine
Let the tube shine
Let the tube shine
Now, I would tell you bout boll weevil
But that bug is just too scary
He's sittin' there all alone
I try to coach him out, but he would not (try surprise)
But he would not move a muscle when I tried
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Boll Weevil, get right out of your home
Boll Weevil, get right out of your home
Boll Weevil, get right out of your home
Boll Weevil, get right out of your home
Now, I would tell you bout boll weevil
But that bug is just too scary
He's sittin' there all alone
I try to coach him out, but he would not (drop his pies)
But he would not move a muscle when I tried
Make him see that the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun is shinin' out
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside
Make him see the sun is shinin' outside

Come on little buggy, he's a little bug!

Well the first time I saw Bool Weevil
He was a-sittin' on a square
Well the next time that I saw him
He had his whole family there
Just a lookin' for a home
Well the farmer took the Bool Weevil
And pulled him on the red hot sand
Well the Weevil said: "It is mighty hot"
But I take it like a man
Just a lookin' for a home
Well, the Weevil said to the farmer:
"Sell your old machine
When we fill your cup
You can buy gasolino"
Just a lookin' for a home
Well if somebody should ask you
Who it was who sang this song
Say you set a beating from Oklahoma city

Pd… Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil
Now, some of you may not know
But a boll weevil is an insect
And he's found mostly where cotton grows
Now, where he comes from, hm, nobody really knows
But this is the way the story goes
Pd… The farmer said to the boll weevil
"I see you're on the square"
Boll weevil said to the farmer
"Say yep, my whole darn family's here"
Pd… The farmer said to the boll weevil
"Say, why do you pick my farm"
The weevil just laughed at the farmer 'n' said
"We ain't gonna do ya much harm"
Ho-o-o-o-o,-o-o-o, -o-o-o, o-o-ome"
Pd… And the boll weevil spotted a lightning bug.
He said "Hey, I'd like to make a trade with you
But, ya see if I was a lightning bug
I'd search the whole night through"
Pd… And the boll weevil called the farmer, 'n' he said
"Ya better sell your old machines
'Cause when I'm through with your cotton
Heh, you can't even buy gasoline
"Stake me a home, gotta have a home
Pd… And the boll weevil said to the farmer, said "
Farmer
I'd like to wish you well"
Farmer said to the boll weevil
"Yeah, an' I wish that you were in ****" home
Lookin' for a home
(Ahh, you have a home all right, you have a home

"I got it from Texas, I got it from the western hills"
Boll weevil, he told the fireman, said "Don't you buy
no more pills.
Ain't gon' make enough money to pay your
drugstore bills.
You ain't going to make enough money to even pay
your drugstore bills"
Boll weevil, he told the farmer "Don't you plow

You ain't gonna make enough flour to even put in your
back door"
Boll weevil, he told the farmer, "Don't buy no

So now, boll weevil, boll weevil where you say you

Get down
Let me tell you 'bout a friend of mine
His name's Boll Weevil check him out
He spends all day on his big butt
And he don't never ever get outside
I come to visit, I bring some sunshine
And I just spread it all over the fire
He's stuck on his big couch, stuck in his big shell
He looks at the TV and he's all right
I come from the drug lord, the local drug store
Bug is a fly and he's never uptight
And I wonder Boll Weevil why don't ya get out of your home
He said I'm comfortable here, I don't wanna move I don't wanna leave
I said Boll Weevil get right out of your home
Good bye, I gotta stay, I'll move some other day bye bye gotta go to sleep
And let the tube shine, let the tube shine,
Let the tube shine, let the tube shine
Now I would tell you about Boll Weevil, but that bug is just too scary
He's in there all alone
I try to coax him out, with chocolate pie
But he would not move a muscle, and I tried
To make him see that the sun was shinin' outside
Make him see that the sun was shinin' outside...
Check it out
Boll Weevil get right out of your home...
Now I would tell you about Boll Weevil, but that bug is just too scary

I try to coax him out, with chocolate pie
But he would not move a muscle and I tried
To make him see that the sun was shinin' outside Make him see that the sun was shinin' out Make him see that the sun was shinin' outside...
Make him see the sun, make him see the sun
Make him see the goddamn sun
Oh that little buddy is a little bug

The boll weevil am a little black bug
Come from Mexico they say
Came all the way from Texas
Lookin' for a place to stay
(Just lookin' for a home)
Just lookin' for a home.
The first time I seen a boll weevil
He was sittin' on a square
The next time I see a boll weevil
He had his whole darn family there
(Just lookin' for a home)
Just lookin' for a home.
--- Instrumental ---
The farmer took the boll weevil
And he throwed him in the red hot sand
The boll weevil told the farmer
I'll stand it like a man.
(This'll be my home)
This'll be my home.
The boll weevil took the cotton
The merchant took the rest
All that's left for the farmer's wife
Is one old torn up dress.?
(It's full of holes)
It's full of holes.
If any one should ask you
Who it was who lerarned you this song
It was just an old farmer they called old willie
Now that old fellow's gone
(He found a home)
He found a home.
(He found a home.)
(He found a home.)
(He found a home.)
(He found a home.)
