Elton John - Cottonfields Lyrics
When I was a little bitty baby
My Momma done rocked me in the cradle
In them old cottonfields back home
It was back in Louisiana
In them old cottonfields back home
Let me tell you now well I got me in a mess
I caught a nail in my tire doing lickety splits
I had to walk a long long way to town
Came along a nice old man
Well he had a hammer
Wait a minute mister, can you get me some direction
I'm gonna wanna be right off for home
Oh let them cotton balls get rotten
I got you baby, who needs cotton
In them old cottonfields back home
Well it sure feels good to breathe the air back home
You should have seen their faces when they seen how I'd grown
In them old cotton fields back home

JUST MAKING A COVER WHILE LOOKING HARD STUDS... AN ARTIST FOR IGNORANT BRITS
Good version, the only other one I have heard with the additional Beach Boys lyrics. However, doesn't seem quite as soulful as the Beach Boys
dont think it was the beach boys singing backin vocals on this? prob not!! ...nevertheless elton had very good backing singers of his own in davey, dee, and nigel!!
"beach boys" backing singers?
This cover version sounds like Shiite.

@beachboysgermany - no Beach Boys on this song. Bvs are Elt, multi-tracked.
