Artist/Band: Burl Ives
Lyrics for Song: Cotton-Eyed Joe
Lyrics for Album: 51 Great Performances [2006]



Burl Ives - Cotton-Eyed Joe



Do You remember a long time ago,

There was a man called cotton-eyed Joe

TThere was a man called cotton-eyed Joe



I could have been married a long time ago

If it hadn't been for cotton-eyed Joe

If it hadn't been for cotton-eyed Joe



Old bull fiddle and a shoe-string bow

Wouldn't play nothin' but a cotton-eyed Joe

Wouldn't play nothin' but a cotton-eyed Joe



Play it fast or play it slow

Didn't play nothin' but cotton-eyed Joe

Didn't play nothin' but cotton-eyed Joe



Don't you remember a long time ago

Daddy worked a man called cotton-eyed Joe

Daddy worked a man called cotton-eyed Joe



Where do you come? Where do you go?

Where do you come from, cotton-eyed Joe?

Where do you come from, cotton-eyed Joe?



Come for to see you, come for to sing,

Come for to show you my diamond ring

Come for to show you my diamond ring
