through Jack Mills, Inc, of New

song, which is now on sale in Ameri-

promises wide popularity, especially
in the South where its sentiments hit
a sympathetic chord. The words fol-
low:
There is man who used to grow cot
ton, and
The man who tries it today
One time crop can be gotten,
But now it's disaster to pay
A little bug is the cause, so they
tell me
Just another add to your list
For the rest the toll of the weevil
Once cotton plant is'kissed.
(Chorus)
I've got those mean cotton blues
/. Sweetie, listen to sad news
Shirts and collars now cost more dol
lars,
I'm ragged from my hat down to my
shoes.
Here's what call naked fact:
Boil weevil's camping hard upon my
track.
When the weevil's on the boil
That means there'll be nothing sold
I've got those cotton blues.
