Cotton Field

"When I was a little bitty baby my mama would rock me in my cradle
In them old cottonfields back home
When I was a little bitty baby...
Now when them cotton bolls get rotten you can't pick very much cotton
In them old cottonfields back home
It was down in Louisiana just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cottonfields back home."
The above are lyrics from "Cotton Fields Back Home" sung by various artists, mostly blues and folk singers.
This cotton field is about 3 miles from our house. Some of the fields have been harvested. The bolls (not a misspelling) of cotton on the plants look a lot like snow from a distance.
