Boll Weevil Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

  C slide C♯

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

C♯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 G♯home, just a-lookin' for a C♯home

  C slide C♯

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

C♯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 G♯home, this will be my C♯home

C♯Well the farmer 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 G♯home, this will be my C♯home

Cslide to C#

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

C♯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 G♯home, just a-lookin' for a C♯home

  C slide to C♯

(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
