If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe. (x2)
Instumental
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe. (x2)
Instumental (Hey hey)
He came to town like a midwinter storm
He rode through the fields so hansome and strong
His eyes was his tools and his smile was his gun
But all he had come for was having some fun.
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe. (x2)
Instumental
He brought a disaster wherever he went
The hearts of the girls were to hell, broken sent.
They all ran away so nobody would know
and left only men 'cause of Cotton-Eye Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe. (x2)
Instumental (Hey hey)
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe.
Instumental (Hey hey)
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago.
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from? Cotton-Eye Joe. (x2)
