(wah-hoo) well the boll weevil and the little black bug come from a-mexico they say came all the way to texas just a-lookin' for a place to stay just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home (doo-doo-wop-wop) well the first time that i seen the boll weevil he was a-sittin' on the square well the next time that i seen him he had his a-family there just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home (doo-doo-wop-wop) well the farmer took the boll weevil and he put him on the red hot sand well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot but i take it like a man this will be my home, this will be my home well the f armer took the boll weevil and he put him on a keg of ice well the weevil said to the farmer this is mighty cool and nice this will be my home, this will be my home (doo-doo-wop-wop) well if anybody should ask you who it was who sang this song say a guitar picker from a-oklahoma city with a pair of blue jeans on just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home (doo-doo-wop-wop)
