Lyrics:

You may talk about the latest, the latest of your own.
These boll weevils, they'll rob you of your home.
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.

The first time I seen a boll weevil,
He was sitting on the stairs.
The next time I seen a boll weevil,
He had his whole family there.
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.

The farmer, he took the boll weevil and put him on the ice.
The boll weevil said to the farmer,
'You treat me mighty nice.'
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.
All right, they are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.

I said 'If anybody asks you people who sang you this song,
You tell 'em it was Jackie White.
He's done been here and gone.'
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.
All right, they are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home,
They are looking for a home.
