On Saturday night
Where I was born
Down on the farm

Guitar plinking
And we started drinking
Til the break of dawn


About twelve o'clock
Everything get hot

Up steps old John
We started clapping
And he started singing

This sweet little country song

(CHORUS)

Bo Weevil, Bo Weevil
Where've you been all day
Yo mama been looking

Had to stop cooking
Since you went away
Bo Weevil, Bo Weevil

Why did you go and stay
You get a licking
As sure as I'm seated

On this bale of hay

On Saturday night

Where I was born
Down on the farm
Guitar plinking

And we started drinking
Til the break of dawn


About twelve o'clock
Everything get hot
Up steps old John

We started clapping
And he started singing
This sweet little country song


(CHORUS)


Bo Weevil, Bo Weevil
Where've you been all day
Mama been looking

Had to stop cooking
Since you went away


Bo Weevil, Bo Weevil
Why'd you go and stay
Mama gonna whip you

As sure as I'm sitting
On this bale of hay
