# Subject: Re: Cotton-eyed Joe and Bluebirds singing I found these words on: http://www.nsknet.or.jp/~motoya/index.html Cotton eyed Joe Doyou rememner a long time ago There was a man called Cotton eyed Joe There was a man called Cotton eyed Joe I could have been married a long time ago If it hadn't a-been for Cotton eyed joe If it hadn't a-been for Cotton eyed joe Old bull fiddle and a shoes-string bow Wouldn't play nothing, but Cotton eyed Joe Wouldn't play nothing, but Cotton eyed Joe Play it fast or play it slow Didn't play nothing but Cotton eyed Joe Didn't play nothing but Cotton eyed Joe Don't you remember and long time ago Daddy worked and a man called Cotton eyed Joe Daddy worked and a man called Cotton eyed Joe Where do you come from ? 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 Bluebirds are singing for me There was a girl I love so darly She lived away back in the hills When the bluebird sings,I miss my darling She loved me I know,she alway will There's a bluebird singing In the blue ridge mountain It's calling me back to my home Oh,I can here those bluebirds calling They'er calling me back to my home Now tonight I'm far from the blue ridge mountain Far from my home back in the hills But I'm going back to the blue ridge mountain There memories they haunt me still * Refrain When I reached home I was so lonely The one I loved had gone away That bad news came from her mother She's sleeping beneath the cray * Refrain
