Let me tell ya a story about a boll weevil
Now, some of you may not know, but a boll weevil is an insect. And he's found
mostly where cotton grows. Now, where he comes from, hm, nobody really knows.
But this is the way the story goes.

The farmer said to the boll weevil "I see you're on the square" Boll weevil said to the
farmer "Say yep! My whole darn family's here"

The farmer said to the boll weevil "Say, why do you pick my farm?" The weevil just
laughed at the farmer 'n' said "We ain't gonna do ya much harm"
