Mr. Boll weevil, do you think you could win
Fighting a roach in a boxing ring?
Before the fight you might give him a fright.
With your beady eyes before the first ding,
Do you think you're mean like a fighting machine
With a one, two punch and a kick?
Or are you just rotten from all the cotton
The farmers are trying to pick?
That roach may be bigger than you'll ever be
But you've got that needle head
Before you know it the fight will be over
And one of you will end up dead.
