Lyrics Cotton Eyed Joe - Terry Callier

Cotton Eyed Joe

Where do you come from?
Tell me, where do you go?
Where do you come from?
Oh, Cotton Eyed Joe
Well, I come for to see ya
And I come for to sing
And I come for to show you
My new diamond ring
Where do you come from?
Tell me, where do you go?
What you been doing?
Oh, Cotton Eyed Joe
My Cotton Eyed Joe
I been cryin' in the sunshine
I been laughin' in the rain
You know, dyin' is easy
It’s livin' that’s pain
If it hadn’t a been for
Old Cotton Eyed Joe
Sugar, I’d’ve been married
A long time ago
