Traditional<br><br>If it hadn't been for cotton-eye joe<br>I'd been married long time ago<br>Where did you come from. where did you go? <br>Where did you come from cotton-eye joe? <br><br>(repeat)<br><br>He came to town like a midwinter storm<br>He rode through the fields so<br>Handsome and strong<br>His eyes was his tools and his smile was his gun<br>But all he had come for was having some fun<br><br>(repeat intro)<br><br>He brought disaster wherever he went<br>The hearts of the girls was to hell broken sent<br>They all ran away so nobody would know<br>And left only men cause of cotton-eye joe<br><br>(repeat intro)
