Lightnin' bugs in bottles
They gimme all the light I need
And I'm seinin' bait for linin'
And that cotton mouth keeps on windin'
Sing, sing, sing
Oh, that big iron pot's a boilin'
And that red eyed momma keeps toilin'
And the crawdad meat's for dinin'
And oh, that cotton mouth keeps on windin', Lord
Sing, sing, sing
