They all looking for a home

The first time I seen a bo weevil
He was sitting on the stair

The next time I seen a boweevil
                        F
He had his own family there
                        C
They all looking for a home
                        F
They all looking for a home

The farmer he took the boweevil
And put him on the ice
The boweevil said to the farmer
You treat me mighty nice
They all looking for a home
They all looking for a home

You’ll all sing along with me on hes

You tell em its jackie white

They all looking for a home
They all looking for a home
