[1] Oh [5] Joe
Hey hey hey [1] Joe

[1] Tune up your fiddle and rosin up your bow
Goin' to play tune called [4] cotton eyed [1] Joe

[1] Where did you come from where did you go
Where did you come from [5] cotton eyed [1] Joe
Oh [5] Joe
Hey hey [1] Joe

Shoe string fiddle and cornstalk bow
Goin' to play tune called cotton eyed Joe

I fell down and stubbed my toe
Sent for the doctor cotton eyed Joe

If it hadn't been for cotton eyed Joe
I'd a-been married 40 years ago
